Be careful of extensions, many people got hacked that way.

If you are going to fall for everything out there without doing a basic research and using your brain before getting into something no extension and or security or privacy feature can save you.
Nothing can save you if you think you are totally secure after installing some addons.

foxpop: what does refcontrol do ?

Controls the Referer header sent by the browser on a per-site basis. For maximum privacy, you should just configure the browser to not send the Referer header at all, but some sites won't work without it (in violation of the HTTP standard). RefControl allows setting a custom referrer for sites that require one.

True, I have read about people losing btc because of a chrome extension. Sometimes they do contain spyware, the best thing to do is to use them on another device that does not keep your btc, or, inspect the source code.

I am using adblock and lastpass. I have great experience with those extensions.

Yeah it should be!

Thanks!

You're welcome.

A couple of weeks ago Chrome blocked KryptoKit by mistake, but they realised their error and re enabled it again pretty quickly. It's a pretty good app. It's very easy to check the price of bitcoin with it and it also has all the latest headlines. And I believe it's made by some trusted members of the bitcoin community, so not much to worry about there.

On Chrome the only two non google extensions I'm currently using are Reddit Enhancement Suite(which is a must imo if you read reddit) and KryptoKit which is pretty great for bitcoin stuff and sending and receiving encrypted messages. Not that I have much to talk about that needs to be encrypted, but to have the option if the need were to arise is nice to have.

Can you give me the link to download the extensions?

Sure, here you go:

There's a eff tool that checks how unique and trackabe your browser is. Surely an interesting test to take.

Also for extra privacy you could use disconnect search.
