These are the permissions requested by this extension in Chrome. I'm just wondering why browsing history is requested?

Oh that's a legacy code. I'll fix it. Thanks for reporting issue!

Hi @jorgegonzalez Sorry I made a mistake. I thought it was legacy code, but I found we still need that afterward. Please check #44 for more details.
