Be careful with OneTab, something shady is going on with this addon but i can't remember it exactly;
if i remember correct it is very unclear that when you share tabs with a specific person, it also posts it on the web for everyone to see. So people are publishing their tabs while unaware of this.
Here's a list of people's shared tabs:
https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.one-tab.com%2Fpage%2F+Shared https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.one...
All kinds of personal things in there, like bookmarks to bank accounts and such if you change the search parameters to something creative :-)
- forgotpwd16 5y agoI wouldn't call it shady since it states this in the add-on page. >Information about your tabs are never transmitted or disclosed to either the OneTab developers or any other party. The only exception to this is if you intentionally click on our 'share as a web page' feature that allows you to upload your list of tabs into a web page in order to share them with others. That's like making an unlisted pastebin or youtube video. It is accessible by anyone but will be public only if you make it (e.g. sharing the URL in a forum). Maybe there should be a confirmation.
- DavideNL 5y ago> allows you to upload your list of tabs into a web page in order to share them with others I understand, however sharing a link with someone specific (usually you need the specific url to access this) is not the same as publishing for the entire internet/search engines. It's not a problem if they do this, but at least they should make people unaware of it. Looking at some of the private bookmarks that are being shared, it seems people are unaware.
