Randomized search is such a good thing in a world globally focused on "Google it" for everything. I really appreciate the ability to choose in a list of defined search engines. The snooze is also a good thing to improve a few things only available with Google search.

I was curious to try some alternative search engines but without completely leaving behind the convenience of Google Search. So, yeah! This idea of randomly picking a search engine is surprisingly working better than I thought for my daily searches.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Meta Random Search requires very minimum permissions.

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.
