ОЧЕНЬ достали всплывающие новые вкладки-рефералки, когда открываешь какой-нибудь вайлберриз, озон или алиэкспресс! Сначала не понял, откуда полезло, потом догадался, что началось после установки данного расширения. При отключении его перестают и эти вкладки открываться.

Расширение бесполезно. Невозможно залогиниться при использовании прокси на SOCKS5, поля логина и пароля попросту неактивны. При этом в файрфоксе тот же самый функционал работает нормально.

Poor UI/UX, doesn't work on Chrome anymore (fine on Firefox).
