I really wish you would have told me that before I supplied access to my amazon account.
Also, why in the world does this need to be an extension? Giving you permissions on both my amazon account and my browser is an awful lot of purview for an organising my e-book highlights...
- tristanho 9y agoHey jszym, that's our bad. We do mention the extension being required on our landing page (below the fold), but we definitely could make it more clear. Thanks for raising it to our attention. If you like, I can purge our db of your Amazon auth -- all we get is your name and email from the amazon login. We need the extension because, unfortunately, Amazon doesn't provide a Kindle API. The extension is used to let you export your highlights from Amazon's cloud easily.
