I don't like KASM extension because it doesn't work
This is an excellent extension, it does what it says, and it makes opening an isolated browser so easy. Great job!
That said, I took off one star because it appears that the target site's URL is passed in clear text through the Extension such that a local web filter can see the target URL and may apply filters based on the target URL. I work for a company whose web filter alerts when a user makes a "Connection to a Known Embargo Country" and it appears that the web filter flagged my usage based on the URL passed through the extension. Not a deal-breaker, but just be aware of how this works.
