User reviews

Low value extension that makes money by selling your private search history/browsing data for "Monetization with third party search partners". See their privacy policy: https://www.moviestab.net/privacy 2 stars because they're somewhat up front about this. But the actual new tab page extension is pretty low value and it seems like they intentionally choose to be a new tab extension so that they could suck up search query data. Also looks like they have some pretty aggressive advertising campaigns and SEO work. I don't recommend it.
