Started off as kinda useful but seemed over time answers became worse and worse. Ask how to bake a cake, get a useless history lesson on cakes, nothing on how to or recipes. It constantly spews related things to your topics but dances around the actual questions. In short it's like grilling a politician on important issues...useless.

Unfortunately, this addon no longer appears to work. Phind no longer supports GET URL parameters at the time of this writing

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.

Phind.com Search Engine requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

Phind.com Search Engine has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
