Features & Capabilities

First you need to get a username. Go to http://spin.sponspin.org and register. It's a simple standard procedure. Anyone can sign up. You need a username and user number. Since you don't have the API key yet you just submit the form without it and it will be instantly emailed to you. After it's filled in you're ready to use SponSpin. You click an article on http://spiegel.de that interests you. After reading the article you click on the SponSpin icon. A pop-up will appear with the headline of the article. Then you comment and submit. You will get a confirmation if successful and a link to go there and use the forum at this time. Or you can just continue and do the next one ... Keep in mind we are looking to expose PROPAGANDA. Hate speech is not productive and will not be tolerated.

Is SponSpin 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.

SponSpin requires a few sensitive permissions. 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.

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