Betterweb Extension

Show a warning beside links to websites that use bad faith privacy notices.

These are sites claiming to care about privacy while making it deliberately difficult to disable privacy invasion.

Install the extension

Help us build the database

We're building a database of offending sites. I'll set up a web form soon, but meanwhile feel free to send links to @shaunchurch on twitter.

How to build

Clone the repo, then:

$ npm install
$ npm run build

Assets will be in ./dist and a dist.zip ready to upload to the Chrome Store will be in the root directory.

How to develop

Clone the repo, then:

$ npm install
$ npm run dev

Then go to brave:https://extensions/ or chrome:https://extensions/ and Load unpacked. Select the ./dist directory. Look for the extension icon in the browser toolbar to confirm it's added.

Note on dev command

Only JS files will recompile on save. Images, styles.css, manifest.json changes will not take effect until the command is restarted and changed assets are copied to ./dist.

Use Brave

Also, if you're not already, please consider using Brave as your browser.
