| 2017-12-14 |  | | Clearly the reviewers are disgruntled students or staff who mistakenly blame the extension for filtering done by their school's CIPAfilter appliance. The extension works flawlessly, doing exactly what it's supposed to do without error. The only valid critique of the extension itself is that it doesn't survive changes in network connections. If you change networks on your device, you'll need to re-authenticate the extension. Ideally, the extension would recognize network changes and re-authenticate on its own. It shouldn't be difficult to code for, but the company doesn't seem to consider it a hot-button issue. That indifference to something that affects a lot of users is the only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five. | |
