## Review summary

Feedback is mixed. Many users find EditThisCookie2 useful for basic cookie editing with a clean UI and an export option. However, several reviews note reliability issues, including not being able to download or the extension stopping to work, and UI bugs like an expanding popup. Privacy concerns are raised due to broad permissions. Additionally, cookie locking isn’t reliably effective. Overall, it’s a decent tool for basic cookie management but needs fixes, clearer permission handling, and improved reliability.

- Simple and clean user interface.
- Supports exporting cookies in name:value format.

### Cons

- Locking cookies is not effective (sites can overwrite values, e.g., AliExpress).
- Excessive permissions raise privacy/malware concerns about the extension.
- Some users report it doesn’t work or can’t be downloaded.
- Popup UI can grow too large and become inaccessible.
