Request to remove "Store unlimited amount of client-side data" (a.k.a. `"unlimitedStorage"`) from the permissions list #1554

Open Juraj-Masiar opened 10 months ago

Describe the problem and steps to reproduce it:

The store shows the unlimitedStorage permission in the list of requested permission, even though this permission is no longer alerted to users during the installation.

Example: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/

Why remove it?

  1. to stay consistent with the permissions alerted to users by Firefox
  2. to show only important permissions. Showing too much text may discourage users from reading it at all.
