This extension can access:

* Your data on all websites

This item can read every page that you visit -- your bank, your web email, your Facebook page, and so on. Often, this kind of item needs to see all pages so that it can perform a limited task such as looking for RSS feeds that you might want to subscribe to.

Caution: Besides seeing all your pages, this item could use your credentials (cookies) to request or modify your data from websites.

* Your tabs and browsing activity



Virtually every Chrome extension that has to deal with a web page somehow requires those two permissions.


A bookmarklet would be better. https://github.com/eliaskg/AlreadyHN
