Mwmbl is a project with almost audacious ambition that is very much needed to provide a counter to the encroaching commercialisation and walled-garden-approach the web at large has been undergoing for many years now. Think trying to do for search engines what Wikipedia has done for looking up encyclopedic knowledge. This is an easy way to support the project - and if you have some more know-how and resources, also check out the CLI script they have as well (I have it running on my server, for example).

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.

Mwmbl Web Crawler requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. 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 Firefox add-on.

Mwmbl Web Crawler is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
