Access to data on all websites and my tabs and browsing history #19

recent update is asking for Access to data on all websites and tabs and 
browsing history, it is totally unnecessary and a huge security risk. 

I have disabled the extension and hope others do the same till it gets fixed

You can find a detailed explanation for this new requirement here:

I want this new functionality in the extension myself, and the reason why I 
originally created the extension is for personal use. However I understand that 
now it has more than 130.000 users and I should give explanations to users. But 
I'm not maintaining different versions of the extension, it's too much work for 
me. Anyways I understand and respect your decision of disabling the extension, 
it's up to you.
