User Reviews

So glad to have found this. It's a real timesaver as opposed to using third party sites on additional tabs, to determine the path of redirections. Athough in the interest of transparency* I would still like to know whether the crafter of the shortURL/redirection link is able to receive tracking info at the time the extension runs its query. But using Quo Vadis does exceed expectations otherwise. *I would not recommend to anyone seeking a high level of privacy to use any extension which collects every URL visited.

Though rarely used, it's great at untangling webs of redirection. I just wish I could control when the option appears (e.g. only show the option on certain domains), but only because I'm trying to trim the number of options in my context menu, a bit of an XY-problem situation.

Is Quo Vadis? 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.

Quo Vadis? requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

Quo Vadis? has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
