Be wary of browser extensions

Browser extensions can be a good thing. But browser extensions can be a bad thing. A very bad thing.

I'm not trying to scare anyone, so don't get the wrong idea. However, it is important to be aware that browser extensions come with risks.

To be sure, I use some browser extensions. I use the BitWarden password manager extensions. I also use a Gmail extension from Google when I use the Chrome browser. But that's it.

My Streaming Life doesn't often involve using a browser, but when I do use a browser, whether for streaming or not, then I want to be safe and secure. As a result, I rarely use browser extenions.
