Browser WatchDog for Chrome Extension

Browser WatchDog scans and removes annoying, intrusive, and malicious extensions that creeped into your browser!
Bad extensions - be gone! ☠️

Bad extensions can cause anything from an annoying browsing experience such as bombardment by ads to serious information leakages.
Browser WatchDog works out of the box and immediately after installation scans all your installed extensions, analyzes their permissions, and compares them to known and unknown blacklists and bad actors.
Once a compromised add-on or extension is found in your browser, Browser WatchDog lets you remove it with a single click.
Scanning can be triggered manually by clicking the Browser WatchDog icon but is also done periodically, a few times a day.

Browser WatchDog is completely FREE and no signup is required.

Radazz (ID: 000000775686a663) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/08/2021 Its great but I think it has a subliminal message when you uninstall it and its saying that it is "highly recommended to reinstall it" I trusted it again I didn't see no bad software nor virus I think it is giving a "Are you sure you want to remove this extension?" warning if you go to a scam website then it scams you, so its great but for some reason makes me think I'm getting tricked no offense, but I like it a lot, I think its the best. I'm not reporting a problem im saying that it for some what reason the uninstall message makes me feel weird.
