Good one, need to update Permissions-Policy

Pretty cool! This extension could be useful when testing web applications. I would love to see a way to further customize views to remove deprecated headers. Maybe in a future release...

Fast and Usefull. There are definitly other way to check for all the security headers, but sometimes when you are in a closed network where you can't reach the internet it's easy to use this extension. Usually I use Burp Pro or Browser developer mode
