The string I use in my extension is "anubis is crap". I took it from a different FF extension that had been posted in a /g/ thread about Anubis, which is where I got the idea from in the first place. I don't use other people's extensions if I can help it (because of the obvious risk), but I figured I'd use the same string in my own extension so as to be combined with users of that extension for the sake of user-agent statistics.

It's a bit telling that you "don't use extensions if you can help it" but trust advice from a 4chan board

  • It's also a bit telling that you read the phrase "I took it from a different FF extension that had been posted" and interpreted it as taking advice instead of reading source code.

  • It's telling that he understands the difference between taking something he can't fully verify and taking simple hints that improve his understanding?
