User reviews
Looks legit from the description, including their website they have listed at bottom of description, going to leave a temporary 5 stars for the promises they make and the seemingly-legit creds with the description and the website.
Only sus part is there are no other addons from "webrisk-info" when you click their microsoft edge addons list page.
So I will comeback and edit this review if something weird happens or if it sucks, otherwise really looking forward to something like this as a person with not the best ability to tell if a website is dangerous or to what severity i could be risking, really.
