User Reviews

Unpinterested! is praised for reducing Pinterest results in Google image searches and working as intended on Google. However, many users report it breaks Google Maps search, doesn't work with other search engines, and has become ineffective due to lack of updates. Privacy concerns arise due to requested permissions. Overall, it is useful for some but limited and buggy for many.
Pros
  • Effectively reduces Pinterest results in Google image searches for some users.
  • Works as advertised on Google search engine.
  • Simple to use and install.
  • Users appreciate it for blocking unwanted Pinterest content.
  • Works well on certain Firefox versions and platforms.
Cons
  • Does not work on search engines other than Google (e.g., DuckDuckGo, Ecosia).
  • Breaks functionality on Google Maps search, causing 'No results found'.
  • No longer works properly or effectively for many users; hasn't been updated recently.
  • Incomplete filtering—some Pinterest results still appear.
  • Requests excessive permissions, raising privacy concerns.

It seems to work decently well. Sure looked like I was seeing far fewer Pinterest hits showing up. (Though, it seems that it doesn't catch all regions of Pinterest). However, I noticed that it can break some things since what it is really doing is forcibly adding "-site:pinterest.*" to the search. A definite issue is that this happening in Maps makes it impossible to search for anything. If it applied only to Image Search this would be easily worth rating 4-star or higher. But for now it is a "turn on to use, turn off to avoid breaking things". Not bad, technically does what it says, but too broadly.

Peut-être ce module a-t-il fonctionné un jour, mais là, la première image qui apparait après installation et redémarrage de Firefox est estampillé pinterest... c'est une tumeur ce site, ras le bol !

Ça ne bloque absolument pas cette saleté de Pinterest qui envahi toutes les rechers d'images. On se demande même si ce n'est pas un truc de plus pour nous espionner.

Is Unpinterested! 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.

Unpinterested! 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.

Unpinterested! is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
