User reviews
It just doesn't work. The extension button shows up as a "?" icon (as opposed to what the screenshot shows, which is a green checkmark indicating that clipboard acces is allowed, and I presume some red sign of some sort when not), and the menu doesn't contain any option to allow/disallow clipboard access for the current website, nor are there any options anywhere to allow it globally or on a per-site basis. It just does nothing, it's obviously broken (but it doesn't show any error allowing you to diagnose the issue either). Basically garbage, I wasted my time trying it out.
