Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension requires permissions to inject a piece of code in all of the pages you visit. If that freaks you out, that's ok. Handing over those permissions freaks me out too.

You can choose to install this extension from source (it's very short) to make sure it's not doing anything malicious.

See: https://github.com/oslego/chrome-backspace-back#from-source

You Guys could have maybe used a checkbox in settings to get this option enabled or not that making an extension for this shortcut or hot key . or maybe it has to update the whole browser when this option is when this setting has to be browser related

I believe the number of complaints will increase, I was not affected by this change until today. We also have to keep in mind that the users of keyboard shortcuts are the ones that disable usage stats. Thanks for creating a solution.
