I'd like to use different search engines but I don't like Bing from Microsoft so I'd like to unmark it from my options. Will you add a feature to add or remove search engines from the search engine options?

Is RandSearch 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.

RandSearch requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Can change search providers, which could redirect searches to malicious sites, posing moderate risk.
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.

RandSearch has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
