User reviews

RIP HTTPS Everywhere, I'm sad to see you go but I'm glad it's finally just built-in to the browser - took them long enough! ❤️ EFF

Been using since 2017.. I always make sure this is installed or is included on every system/software I use everywhere I can. Also works great with uBlock Origin which I recommend the most!
