Can't install grammarly

Kaleb Lowery, 2025-04-23

(this account was hacked) This extension sucks. Teachers can actually abuse this power to control students computers like for example, blankscreening. We do not deserve to get this installed to our school laptops. Now I know that it's not our account but the extension just makes it worse. Oh and one more thing, it can GET YOUR ILLEGAL STUFF. Yeah... this is a reason this deserves 1 star.
