User Reviews
L'estensione mi sembra funzionare molto bene e avvisare per ogni dominio punycode.
The extension seems is working very well detecting every punycode domain.
Sarebbe utile poter visualizzare il dominio punycode e il dominio a cui punta nella schermata di avviso dell'estensione che attualmente mostra un avviso generico senza dettagli sul dominio interessato.
It would be useful to be able to see the punycode domain and the domain it points to in the extension's warning screen which currently shows a generic warning with no details about the affected domain.

Sarebbe utile poter installare questa estensione anche su Firefox per Android. Attualmente non sembra possibile.
It would be useful to be able to install this extension on Firefox for Android too. At the moment it doesn't seem possible.

Is PunyCodeChecker 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.
PunyCodeChecker requires a few 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.
- High ****** *** ********* ** ******* *** ******* ******* ** ****** *** *** ******** ******
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 Add-ons Store, 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.
PunyCodeChecker has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
