User reviews

I have been using this extension for years but suddenly it has started generating links that link to a QR code extension instead of the page I had used it on. I discovered this because I gave a shortened link to someone and they asked why I was spamming them with a QR code extension. Imagine my surprise! Now this is just malware junk.
