quite literally an invasion of privacy.

This Extension should be removed, it violates our human rights and invades our privacy. Hapara also records your data and browsing history and sells it to companies so that they can advertise their products to you. Ever since my school started using Hapara i have recived many emails asking if i wanted to buy robux gift cards and get some free, as i had once let my sister use mu computer and she looked up free robux. This extension SUCKS

So teachers can basically spy on you. Tip: To get rid of it, delete the extension, if your school doesn't allow that, switch account.
