good stuff, nice addon, doesnt require too many permissions & just plain works. all though i really prefer the old interface. i dont like having to leave my webpage just to copy the video link, specially if i have a lot of tabs open. so for now, im using the old version till it gets fazed out or stops working. i really, really, really, cant stand having a new tab open instead of a pop up window just to copy a link. sorry had to dock 2 stars, as it works a treat, but now has become cumbersome for the way i use it. old interface version gets 5 stars tho..

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Media Downloader Unleashed!! requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Media Downloader Unleashed!! is very likely to contain malware and should not be trusted. Avoid installing.
