Reviews for Return YouTube Dislike
Return YouTube Dislike by Dmitry Selivanov

Rated 5 out of 5
by JBoot8, 12 hours agoI was concerned about the new permissions required, but scrolled down and saw a reply from the developer explaining what was going on. Everything collected is only related to YouTube and is anonymized, the same as what previous versions were doing. The only thing that changed was how Mozilla classifies permissions.
Thank you to the dev for the explanation!

posted 12 hours agoThanks for taking your time read. I agree, this new system gives a very scary impression.
But in reality - the extension can only access these permissions on two sites - YouTube and it's own returnyoutubedislike - on all other sites it's not even allowed to "turn on".
Personally identifiable information - RYD’s randomly generated private user ID used to count votes, not your real identity.
Browsing activity - i.e. navigating to the next video, so that the next dislikes can be shown
Website content - i.e. the like\dislike container element
Website activithy - i.e. clicking like or dislike button.
As I already said - only on YouTube. Not everywhere.
