An API and chrome addon would be very nice. I wouldn't check the site, but I would like warnings when I accessed the registration page of a bad website.

Agreed. This seems like something Mozilla should also get behind. I'd love to see this sort of information as part of the site identity dialog, which now only has SSL certificate details.

Update: I guess this could be used as an API of sorts: https://raw.github.com/unhosted/ToS-DR/gh-pages/points.json

I noticed that it's under the AGPL. That might be an issue for developing a Chrome plugin.

AGPL is our JS+HTML+CSS code. The data itself (JSON) is CC-BY-SA.

would it be possible to add ixquick and webchat.freenode you suggest?

What do you mean?

To have ixquick privacy policies reviewed next to duckduck, and contact us via IRC (the #tosdr irc channel on freenode) ->

thanks!

Aaand a first version of the Chrome plugin is done. Install and try it out: https://github.com/unhosted/ToS-DR/issues/11#issuecomment-76...

PS: hey Ben!

tossos.com was built about 6 months ago. Trying to do similar things as this. It has a Chrome Plugin... check it out.

Yes. I have been in touch with the author and invited to cooperate. But... where is the code? how does it work exactly? How can it interoperate with other projects trying to back up archives of terms? etc. etc.

We now also have a first version of the Chrome extension ready to try out: https://github.com/unhosted/ToS-DR/issues/11#issuecomment-76...

Let us know what you think!
