And people who use extensions. Beyond ad blocker on some machines I don't use extensions on principle because of security concerns.
- aisofteng 10y agoCatehorically not using extensions, regardless of their permissions system, sounds less like "security concerns" and more like "fear rooted in ignorance." Continuing to use some of them (ad blockers), regardless of said "security concerns", sounds like cognitive dissonance.
