WOT extension

In 2016, an addon called "Web of Trust" (WOT) was accused in Germany of generating/selling high-precision user profiles, which was not recognizable to users in this drastic form. As a result, Google and Mozilla had removed the addon from their addon catalogs. Is this a follow-up version from the same developer? What has changed since then?

Бесполезное приложение и полагаю ещё и опасное. Непонятно какие персональные данные и куда оно отправляет. К тому же, часто блокирует нормальные сайты, а опасные не замечает. За день кучу вирусов пропустило. Пришлось удалить его и включить обычный антивирус с фаерволом. Выключал антивирус для проверки этого приложения. Кому оно данные отправляет и какие? Проверено анализатором трафика.

We encourage you to address us directly in case you encounter questionable websites.

Between 5 and 14 Nov 2020 this company with four hypothetical sales overloaded my credit card with the amount of €7,085.00. And without I ever having any contact with this company before!

Thanks for reaching out and sharing this with us.
Please note that myWOT does not offer a premium package on Opera browser and therefore does not collect any charges of any kind on this platform.
Since we are convinced this is a misunderstanding and that you reached the wrong address, please contact us directly at support@mywot.com so we can look into this with you. -

I have used this addon for a while and find it VERY useful. I notice on Majorgeeks that there is some kind of update but the addon I have is the same and I cannot find and I cannot see anyway to update it?
