This is why I cringe when people recommend random ass addons to do random shit. Better to just literally stick to ublock origin and maybe 1 other. I really don't trust most extensions.

Besides random extensions, I also recommend checking when the last update was if possible.

I used to use the KDE Plasma Integration extension but have since ditched it when I found out the last update was in 2024, a little over a year ago now. Unless they update it, I'mma treat that 1 year old extension like a 10 year old extension in terms of security.

Ublock origin, noscript and canvas anti fingerprinting. Works great

Yea those are well known. But I see people recommending sketchy extensions for small things.
