User Reviews
What happened? This was supposed to be Panlatin and now it's a completely different extension. All my websites had garbled text until I finally tracked down the issue to this. No mention of this anywhere on linked sites nor here!

Is Sound Hints 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.
Sound Hints requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious.
