I don’t think those permission mean that they can collect the data and send it home. I think it means more something like „ accessing all code of website to block scripts“.

If the would send data home I would be a bit irritated. Could someone please clarify this ?

Because I know some extensions do exactly this . There was a talk from the ccc about this. But is this a Firefox specific problem ?

Thanks for responding anyway

Its FF specific as in, in chromium you do not need to install them as its a native feature
