Hooktubeify Firefox

Hooktubeify

Automatically redirect YouTube links to Hooktube (https://hooktube.com/) instead, unless you're already on YouTube. Your request never reaches YouTube servers. Hooktube lets you watch YouTube videos without being tracked by Google.

Features & Capabilities

Navigate to youtube.com/watch?v=qmitHcHqsCI or youtu.be/qmitHcHqsCI, and you're automatically redirected to hooktube.com/qmitHcHqsCI. Your request never reaches YouTube.

If you click a video while you're already on YouTube, your video will play normally through YT.

Drop a few shekels in the cryptobuckets below if you find this plugin increases your power levels.

Is Hooktubeify 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.

Hooktubeify requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. 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.

Hooktubeify has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
