      The extensions says that it will do the following, what exactly does that mean?

      This extension will access your data on some websites.
      This extension will manage your extensions.
      This extension will access your tabs and browsing activity.

      What does it do with the accessed data?

        I also discovered that:

        The extension "FastForward" was added from outside the official add-ons website. It will require the following permissions:
        Read your browsing history [tabs]
        Access your data on all websites [http:///, https:///]
        Do you confirm the installation?

        What does it do with the accessed data and why???? Is my data being uploaded somewhere?

              If Opera didn't write the extension then you will need to talk to the author of the extension to get support for it, not here. This is just for Opera products like the web browser and the email application. You get support for extensions from whomever wrote them.

                If Opera did write, then how do I talk to the author?

                  Opera didn't write it. Go to where you downloaded the extension from and contact that author to find out their privacy policy or why they're needing those permissions.

                    Commenting on the extension's page may help.

                      Fast Forward most probably, since it would be kinda difficult to do it without knowning and reading the page you are in.

                        Its been a while since I last checked this forum. Maybe there are some new developments. Anything new with the Fast Forward feature?

                              I can't get it to work on Opera. How do I get it to work without going through any pre setup stuff?

                                What would be it? If you mean fast forward, Opera doesn't have it.
