## Review summary

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.
