Hi Priyam, if you have a question about a specific extension, that would be easier to answer.

Browser extensions have a range of different behaviors, and those which have access to all page your browse could, in theory, do things with that information which you would not want or expect. Please always check reviews to make sure they sound sensible (not fake), and only install extensions that in your opinion have reasonable permission requirements.
