User reviews

Desperately needs and update. The "extension button" in the top right corner works fine, but the add-ons in the form fill fields don't work at all. It either says "oops, you're not logged in" or it just does nothing at all.

Throttle is a terrific extension for a terrific service. I pay $100 a year to have an unlimited number of unique email addresses that I can use anywhere and everywhere. That way if a website gets hacked only one unique email address is compromised and my `real` email address is never sold.
