Extension doesn't even show up in the browser. Evidently it doesn't work any longer and should be removed from the store.....

Works perfect and does just what it should. To those complaining about it not automatically copying to clipboard - apps that do that automatically can be really dangerous, more so if you have something already in clipboard that you need. #Protip - triple click the link and press control+C to copy. With practice this takes about one second.
