User Reviews
I really liked this extension, and it worked great to stop me from visiting distracting sites. However, it looks like a recent Firefox update has broken it. I jumped into a debug window and I think that the problem is that Firefox now has a "loading" tab change sent before it actually sends the updated site. Slow Down seems to only look at the "loading" tab, not the actual site.

Does not abuse processing power compared to some extensions of the same category (Leechblock).

Is Slow Down 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.
Slow Down requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk impact analysis details
- Critical Grants access to browser tabs, which can be used to track user browsing habits and history, presenting a privacy concern.
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.
Slow Down has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
