Redirector Firefox

Redirector

Redirects URLs accessed depending on a given regex and formatting functions. Automatically or manually!

Features & Capabilities

Do you want to skip seeing the youtube shorts page? Do you want all twitter access to be redirected to nitter? Do you want to never visit Reddit again? This is the plugin for you.

With a simple visit to the options menu, you can redirect any given URL to any other given URL, even while keeping some data from the old one! Furthermore, you can even use the selection of internal pages at your disposal in order to, for example, block access to a certain page.

There is even some functionality regarding formatting functions (turning part of the URL from uppercase to lowercase, removing excess symbols, and probably more). The full usage guide can be found here.

I was looking for an addon to redirect youtube shorts & didn't even have to write the rule because it came preconfigured.

Is Redirector Safe?

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.

Redirector 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.
  • Medium ****** ** ********* *** ******* ******** **** **** *********** *** ********* *** ********* ******* *** *****
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 Add-ons Store, 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.

Redirector has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.

Risk likelihood analysis details
  • High This extension has low user count. Unpopular extensions may not be stable or safe.
  • Low **** ********* *** ******* **** **** * ****** **** ***** ******** *** **** ****** ** ** ****** *** *****
  • Low **** ********* *** ***** **** **** * ****** **** ***** ********** *** **** ****** ** ** ****** *** *****
