Eric Dunbar (ID: 0000009af6f75e20) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 05/17/2024 Cannot disable. Even the "Enabled" selection in the extension no longer pretends to work to prevent it from popping up on websites. Pure garbage that chews up memory and CPU cycles and leads to browser instability. How can this company produce something that cannot be disabled when force installed? Update. Three years later and the extension is still very poorly written. Now it cannot even be hidden anymore.

Trevor Edmondson (ID: 000000479343786e) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/01/2023 DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS! I was in my career development class and we were doing a assignment on Google Docs, and as I'm doing my work I see a tab that I can click on, and when I click it, it this big image of an arrow on my screen. I tried to refresh the page, I tried to close the tab, I shut off my chrome book, but still... nothing. Not even the tech guy at our school could figure out what happened, or how to get it off. I eventually found out that the school download this on our accounts and we can't uninstall them.

Derby Caster (ID: 000000e63bfb09a8) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/09/2023 My school installed this on all of the school computers and made it so that you can't remove it, and when you try to remove the access, it restarts the computer and adds it again. It has this annoying tab thing that shows up on every website and won't go away, and sometimes, the extension randomly opens by itself and asks me to log in with Google. The UI is ugly, it looks like they just found a bunch of icons off of google and slapped them on there. Overall, 3/10
