User reviews

While the extension itself is good, the original developper said he sold it twelve days ago and that, the irony, it phones home. It may be nothing but it might also scrape data from you. and here is the source: https://www.ghacks.net/2020/10/16/time-to-remove-nano-adblocker-and-defender-from-your-browsers-except-firefox/ I removed it, but you should read and decide accordingly.

Lieber sofort deinstallieren. Wurde an zwei Türjken verkauft die den Code geändert haben. Er enthält jetzt eine neue connect.js-Datei. Damit werden Benutzeraktivitäten und Daten an Remote-Server übermittelt. siehe https://github.com/NanoAdblocker/NanoCore/issues/362 „Die Erweiterung ist nun so ausgelegt, dass sie spezifische Informationen aus Ihren ausgehenden Netzwerkanfragen nach einer extern konfigurierbaren Heuristik sucht und an https://def.dev-nano.com/ sendet.“

Autrefois considéré comme une alternative à Ublock Origin, l'application vient d'être vendue à des développeurs turcs dans le but d'utiliser les données des utilisateurs à des fins marketing. Si le développeur n'avait pas lancé l'alerte, on aurait mis plus de temps à le découvrir ( https://www.ghacks.net/2020/10/16/time-to-remove-nano-adblocker-and-defender-from-your-browsers-except-firefox/ ). A fuir donc. Personnellement, je retourne chez Ublock Origin.
