објављено pre 2 mesecaSorry - twice is twice too many.
The first prompt was Firefox's new data disclosure, mandatory for every add-on since Firefox 140. Nothing about Keepa changed, only the labels.
The second was us removing one of them: "personally identifying information", which was only ever your Keepa account token - now labelled "authentication information". Firefox re-prompts whenever a label is added, even when the list gets shorter.
It works exactly as it did before. What's left is browsing activity, because a price chart requires knowing which product you're on, and the account token. Nothing is logged unless you track something.
No further prompts expected.

I'm not comfortable with that, and I don't think anyone should either. So that's it for me. Uninstalled! - Оцењено 3 од 5од Firefox корисник 17472807, pre 6 danatechnically a nice extension, but the recent permissions it requires are a bit fishy ... might be that firefox's requirement wording is overly cautious or even inaccurate, but it still feels weird

- Оцењено 1 од 5од Kijko, pre jednog mesecaSomething fishy is going on with this extension, recently I had more & more website telling me that my IP have been flagged for bot usage. I decided to investigate, and after a fews day i've seen some strange behavior on my computer :
Lot of call made to "amazon.fr" (im french) with product i've never searched and reviews product check, using some cookies stored in the browser
When I uninstalled Keepa the behavior stopped and I had no more "your ip as been flagged as bot", and to be sure i've reinstalled it and the behavior reappeared.
If you want to do the test, install any proxy, launch your browser with Keepa, go to amazon (i've done it only logged in) and let it in the background for 30 min then search for amazon domain, you will see a lot of api call made for product you never searched for.
Ill recommend any user to not install this addons, until the dev answer why it has this behavior without our autorization. - Оцењено 2 од 5од SweatTechnique, pre jednog meseca
- Оцењено 1 од 5од Firefox корисник 12398242, pre jednog mesecaVery shady and manipulative price tracking. Keep in mind that the price historicals aren't accurante and sometimes are changed so items that were cheaper aren't showing or more expensive prices are shown as cheapest in the historical. Manipulative, shady, liars.

- Оцењено 1 од 5од Xaymar, pre 2 mesecaTL;DR: The new update does not add any harmful code. I've looked at the actual code of the addon stored in the XPI file, it is still the same addon as before.
Needless to say the developers did kind of understate what these consent permissions actually cover due to the broad categories Mozilla set. While there is some odd code that listens to any and all cookie changes, it only acts on Keepa cookies. The rest is just adding an element to the Amazon site that grabs the graph stuff from the Keepa domain. Same as before, but without the consent warning.
The 1* rating is intentional so this can easily be found by people being suspicious of the change.Одговор програмера
објављено pre jednog mesecaThank you for actually reading the code - that's more scrutiny than most of this thread, and your read is accurate.
On the cookie listener: cookies.onChanged is scoped to an add-on's host permissions, so it only receives changes for keepa.com and the Amazon domains - not the whole browser. The first two lines of the listener discard anything that isn't keepa.com/extension. It exists because the chart is embedded from keepa.com, and Total Cookie Protection stops that frame from reading its own cookies, so the add-on mirrors them across.
On understating: fair, and we've changed it since. Two of the three labels were wrong - "website content" (we transmit none) and "personally identifying information", which was only ever the Keepa account token and is now "authentication information". The listing now spells out what each remaining category covers. If a specific line still reads as understated, tell us and we'll fix the wording.
On the rating: we understand the logic. The cost is that the star is what the ranking and most visitors register, while "no new harmful code has been added" is the part they don't read. We'd rather that sentence were the findable one. - Оцењено 5 од 5од Sparkling Eagle, pre 2 meseca

објављено pre 2 meseca"Authentication information" here means one thing: a token the add-on generates on your own device for your Keepa account, so the chart loads your settings and tracked products. It is not your Amazon login, not your Firefox account, and not a password. The add-on never sees any of those.
It replaced the previous label, "personally identifying information" - the list got shorter, not longer. No permissions were added. Access is unchanged: keepa.com and Amazon product pages only.
Firefox 140 introduced these labels; the code behind them is the same as it was. Full source goes to Mozilla every release and their reviewers rebuild it to verify. - Оцењено 1 од 5од Firefox корисник 14320116, pre 2 mesecaStarted asking for more permissions, nothing really changed, devs didn't explain exactly why this happened

објављено pre 2 mesecaThe chain: Firefox 140 made data disclosure mandatory. Our previous version declared "none", which was not accurate under the new definitions, so Mozilla disabled it. We resubmitted using the three categories named in Mozilla's enforcement notice. We then found two of those labels were wrong and removed them, which triggered a second prompt, since Firefox re-prompts on any addition even when the list gets shorter.
You're right that nothing really changed. The add-on behaves exactly as before (with bug fixes) and still runs only on Amazon product pages and keepa.com. The full explanation is now in the add-on description. - Оцењено 1 од 5од FraYoshi, pre 2 mesecaThe addon started requiring more permissions than necessary, it was slightly acceptable.. but now is requiring AUTHENTICATION INFORMATION! This is HIGHLY alarming. I highly suggest to refrain from using this malware.

I'm all for data privacy use and disclosure but people need to read descriptions before getting their panties in a knot. - Оцењено 5 од 5од ff, pre 2 mesecaPerfect. (To other users: Please read the provided information about the permissions before writing feedback.)

- Оцењено 5 од 5од Firefox корисник 12254945, pre 2 mesecaI've been concerned recently with this extension failing, but good to see the dev being transparent about why. I could not even tell anyone how long I've had Keepa installed - it's been a long time. Fantastic extension.
- Оцењено 5 од 5од Firefox корисник 17865869, pre 2 mesecaA truly useful Firefox Add-on. I'm sorry you're getting reviewed bombed by people who did not bother to read the release notes.
