Recent reviews
La carrellata di estratti dei siti è varia, informativa e internazionale. Il loro insieme permette di farsi una prima idea veloce e articolata. Più limitati i riferimenti commerciali, ma per le mie ricerche è un pregio. E poi si può dare anche a un bambino, per esercizio di lettura, perché il risultato è solo testo. Ottimo ed efficace punto di accesso a notizie generali e varie. *****

Is Qwant Lite 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.

Qwant Lite requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. 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 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.

Qwant Lite may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
