by Kollin O., a year agoTLDR; This add-on not only rips you off but your favorite creators as well.
This add-on steals money from creators with sponsor links by secretly changing it to theirs. It also does not do the thing it's being advertised to do -aka 'saving you money by looking for coupons'. They do not have many of the working coupons, and they do not add them to their database even if a user submits said coupon to them.
You're better off not using this add-on, even if you can't be bothered to find coupons yourself. Best case scenario, you are not losing anything by not having it. Worst case scenario, you and the creators you enjoy get ripped off by the shady developers of Honey.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 5702412, 19 hours agoWatch "Megalag's" youtube video on Honey.
Some of his allegations:
1) Not only does it steal cookies (under last attribution)
2) It ignores the "stand done" requirements
3) It has code to detect whether someone is coming from a test account, affiliate user, or whether someone is a new honey account (Think VW Dieselgate).
4) Honey claims that millions of codes are scanned, but this is not the case
5) It takes coupons down
Watch his video. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18599838, 2 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by BP, 4 days agoFraudulent spyware. Fully profiles your computer's activity and is programmed to dodge detection when you investigate. DO NOT INSTALL. If you are a user, UNINSTALL NOW. Document your use and prepare for a juicy class action. Harms the user, harms the store front, harms their competitors. Harms EVERYONE in the name of making a pretty penny. Every one and thing about this is a verifiable liar. DO. NOT. USE.

- Rated 1 out of 5by A Willosaur, 4 days agoNever worked when I tried it on top of being essentially spyware. Avoid.
