The browser didn't mention anything about reading/writing/modifying content of all sites? It's been a minute since I've messed with browser extensions, but I remember the ability to write 'tags' to a site's content was gated behind a permission dialog during "installation".

Installing my adblocking extension the browser told me the app is capable of reading all web pages and editing them, but I assume they aren’t using that capability to track me.
