发布于 20 天前The extension only collects a randomly generated user id, and your vote with a like\dislike. That is literally everything that is being sent - bare minimum for it to function. Nothing is being sold.
Unfortunately even a random ID for recording likes\dislikes is still "personal data".
If even the random user id is too much for you - there is an option to disable vote submission in settings. Then extension collects nothing (but your dislikes don't count anymore - so it's up to you)开发者回应

The premium features are there to cover costs for everyone. Servers for this kind of load take some money.开发者回应
发布于 20 天前Sorry the message about new features bothered you.
It's shown once in lifetime on update install, I wouldn't call this "popups" - since its a single changelog message. Plural here is just misrepresentation.
It’s shown only once during the lifetime of the extension, and it’s timed to appear after a browser restart - hopefully the least disruptive moment.
Handling YouTube-scale traffic and storing dozens of terabytes of like/dislike data on a school-lunch budget ain’t that easy. The funding from these features is what keeps RYD’s servers running.
And as for the permissions:
The extension is actually recommended by Mozilla, so they do not consider it harmful or dangerous.
RYD hasn’t changed how it handles your data. What changed is how Mozilla labels these permissions - not what the extension does with your data.
The extension only uses the data it needs to show dislikes and count votes.
Its site permissions cover YouTube and its own API at returnyoutubedislikeapi.com. RYD doesn’t read other websites, and these site permissions cannot be used to access them.
Here’s what those permissions mean:
Personally identifiable information - RYD’s randomly generated, anonymous user ID, used to count votes. This isn’t your Google or YouTube account.
Browsing activity - opening the next YouTube video, so the extension can send its video ID and fetch the new dislike count.
Website content - things like the visible like count, which helps calculate dislike estimates.
Website activity - clicking Like or Dislike.
Again, this is about YouTube activity. The extension isn’t watching everything you do across the internet - it simply can’t do that with these site permissions.
The new labels sound scary, but they don’t give the extension access to more websites.

But after getting misled by Firefox into thinking the extension got bought out or something similar, and then learning that Firefox is at fault here with a change on their side...
And the shitstorm that has started.
Thanks for the awesome extension开发者回应
发布于 20 天前It is a bit unfair to call it "mislead", after all what they state is factual. It is just not very clear, and looks scarier than what is actually happening.
They just should be aware that an average user will spend 5-10 seconds maximum looking at that notice - and after that the user will delete the extension and leave a 1 star review. Which is somewhat unfair.
Thanks for taking your time to dig into the issue. 开发者回应

After seeing reviews, not sure why they change why they word it like that, but I trust you.
Really like this addon, not just like but also important to see those datas which we're suppose to see from the start.
Thank for your effort!开发者回应

Mozilla updated how they word data the warning for data collection, which is bad and misleading
Anything under the "Personal Data Category", for this extension using website content and activity (youtube), is going to be labeled and disclosed as Personal Data collection, even if its not collecting or storing any data. Which no way to specify what kind of data is being handled.
For those who are down voting and don't understand code, this is a reasonable use to use to something like Claude Code to scan through the GitHub repository to see what or if data is actually collected and used. And what has changed from previous versions.
Nothing has changed permissions wise, besides Oauth being added for Patron (which is optional).开发者回应

This extension still works wonders, even now. The pop-up is purely optional and you can close it, as it'll never pop back up again.
Why Firefox/Mozilla decided to word it as such, I have no idea.开发者回应

- 评分 5 / 5来自 The Black Hole， 20 天前The new warning about data collection is misleading, nothing changed about how the extension handles data (and it's open-source, see it for yourself). Sponsorblock and similar addons are in the same situation.
It's a Mozilla issue: unlike GDPR cookie banners where you can explain how and why data is collected, there's no way to do that with the new data collection permission warning.
See "The new data transmission permissions seem to be misleading to users" on Mozilla Discourse.
Besides the shitstorm, I think this is a great (and essential) extension to easily identify misleading videos.开发者回应
