I really enjoy your extension, but it's just too invasive. I know you say it collects data on the fine print at the store, but most of the extensions that does so anonymize the data first. I myself maintain some CLI tools and had to create a anonymizer to avoid collecting more data than user's would be comfortable sharing. https://github.com/node-gh/gh/blob/master/lib/cmd-anonymizer.js\r\n\r\nFeel free to contact me if you have questions or need help.\r\n\r\n<img width=\"1440\" alt=\"screen shot 2015-10-01 at 3 00 12 am\" src=\"https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/936421/10213842/92b0e86a-67e8-11e5-84d3-b67f267311d3.png\">\r\n\r\nSorry for not trying to contact you first, but my first reaction was to alert people and find out more.

What is wrong?\r\n\r\nBTW, there is one more extension with 864k users that is also integrated with FairShare https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/speakit/pgeolalilifpodheeocdmbhehgnkkbak \r\n\r\nAnd this one, 240k users https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/fb-color-changer/kfmpgofbpmkihnamkhcoohnmipjkfjph\r\n\r\nAnd this one about Intenta https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chrome-currency-converter/anbfhidldjknonaihbalghlebaijealk\r\n\r\nAnd this also https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/screen-shader/fmlboobidmkelggdainpknloccojpppi\r\n\r\nAfter refusing the offers of multiple fishy ad and url gathering companies, I have partnered with a good-hearted startup named Intenta who use anonymous url data to improve the relevancy of ads on the internet.  So basically if you are, for example, looking to buy a book, and Intenta is partnered with a company that sells the same book for a smaller price, then you might later see their ads for the cheaper book instead of other less relevant ads, so you get some good deals and save a bit of money while I get paid a few cents for my +400 hours of work on Screen Shader.\r\n\r\nInstalling an ad-blocker, of course, will nullify intenta's effects for those who don't want good deals when shopping online.\r\n\r\n"}}
