Features & Capabilities

Features: • Removes sections such as AI Overview, Images, Videos, Top stories, Local news, etc. • Removes tracking parameters from the URLs of Google searches. • Ability to change the filter after you search (e.g., Images filter). • Redirects to the Web filter when you search using the address bar or New Tab page search box. • The extension does not redirect to the Web filter when you use the search box on the search results page. This allows you to continue searching under a different filter (e.g., Images) without having to switch back to it after each search.

Caveats: • In order to use Google Search tools (e.g., calculator, unit converter, color picker, etc.), you need to switch to the All filter after you perform a search. • Based on the structure of Google Search URLs, searches entered directly on Google domain homepages (e.g., google.com) will not be redirected to the Web filter. If I implemented this feature, it would also redirect you back to the Web filter when you try switching to a different filter after you perform a search.

Is Google Search Web Filter Safe?

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.

Google Search Web Filter requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

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 Add-ons Store, 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.

Google Search Web Filter is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
