Edit: After re-reading this multiple times, I don't think this wording is helpful. There should be a transparent description of what this extension offers before users navigate to download and install options.
> Websites have increasingly begun to rely much more on large third-parties for content delivery. Canceling requests for ads or trackers is usually without issue, however blocking actual content, not unexpectedly, breaks pages. The aim of this add-on is to cut out the middleman by providing lightning speed delivery of local (bundled) files to improve online privacy.
I agree that it's a very weird frontpage and means of describing an extension, but you don't need to run their code before reading what the extension does.
It should have a description on their own site, not rely on one in an app store. I wouldn't even click on that until I'm convinced I want it.
In fact I didn't, I saw the page, was like "???" and then went to the comments here to read what this was about ;)
But yeah I always wondered what Google does with all these calls to the javascript libraries they're hosting... I bet they milk them for data somehow. It's a good effort but I'm not sure I'll install it as I already have so many plugins in Firefox that it constantly complains about slow startup.
