User Reviews
I feel this is a joke extension. Inside joke? Anyway... the description made me actually laugh out loud. No kidding. It's even funnier to think you wrote this extension just for yourself because he annoys you so much. I can't stop laughing thinking about this.
Dang is a big part of the reason HN is a crown jewel among discussion boards.
Someone is going to followup with a HackerNewsYesDang that only shows comments written by Dang or highlight those comments in some mashup of neon yellow:-)

Is HackerNewsNoDang 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.
HackerNewsNoDang requires very minimum permissions.
