Decreased Productivity has been removed because it contains malware? #12

Logged onto my browsers (Chromium Edge 90.0.818.56) this morning and received a message saying that Decreased Productivity had been removed because it contained malware?

The Chrome Webstore page currently gives a 404 Page Not Found: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/decreased-productivity/nlbpiflhmdcklcbihngeffpmoklbiooj

The Firefox Extensions store seems to have it still up though: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/decreased-productivity-andryou/

Any idea what's going on?

Edit: The exact error message was: "This extension has been disabled because it's been marked unsafe by the Chrome Web Store."

Yeah it was flagged by Edge too. I don't know why

I have the same issue with Chrome and Edge. Really handy extension that I hope to be able to continue using.

Hi Folks, I've been searching for an answer to this too. Hopefully some clarification will happen soon. Could you please post any updates or further info if possible? In the event that original creator does not support this project anymore could you please advise of any worthwhile alternative? Thank you.

It seems to be back now. It would still be interesting to understand what happened...
