Features & Capabilities

StealthSearch Shield functions by halting the transmission of tracking cookies to Google during searches, creating the appearance of being logged out of your Google account while searching.

Modify search settings by enabling the "Search Preferences Cookie" in the add-on settings, initially blocked to preserve your current search settings.

Is StealthSearch Shield 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.

StealthSearch Shield requires a lot of 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.

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