User reviews

The OpenAI Translator Firefox add-on has multiple reports of not functioning correctly or at all across different Firefox versions. Users mention it demands an API key that they do not possess, causing usability issues. The add-on also appears to default to or force Chinese language, which is unwanted by users. There is a lack of support for some languages such as Swedish, and technical errors like '"then" is read-only' further hinder operation.

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.

OpenAI Translator requires a lot of 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.

OpenAI Translator is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
