Allow loading of arbitrary extensions #54

Closed ghostwords closed 4 years ago

ghostwords commented 4 years ago

Now that we can run scans to evaluate the effect of (strict) Tracking Protection on Privacy Badger's learning (c6c932ef82b1c58f1714e8653177a80198ca966f), it would be nice to also have the ability to load arbitrary other extensions to make similar comparisons. So, a --load-extension flag.

Loading packed extensions in Chrome should be simple with opts.add_extension(PATH_TO_EXTENSION_CRX). Firefox is probably more complicated, so I suggest getting this working on Chrome first.

Firefox should now support simple loading of packed and unpacked extensions too. I updated the master branch to load Privacy Badger (unpacked): f7596b1393a8c637e89235ba7905a44c1b5046c0
