Details

The user https://reviewers.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/findizer/ has about 90 add-ons, most of them clones of each other (with slight differences in coding due to development stages I think, as well as porting from SDK to webextensions). I looked at several and they don't do anything except adding tracking cookies to various sites and injecting remote scripts into every single web page, possibly for further tracking or worse. I suggest that we block all add-ons of that developer since they don't seem to have good intentions.

Hi Andreas Wagner, We are the editor of theses shopping addons, can you give us a email address in order to discuss about this. To be honest, we only load a remote script for easy maintenance and updates. If it is a problem for Mozilla, we can put the script back in the extension. Best regards.
