[QUOTE="Moonhorse, post: 1051333, member: 72712"] You are using microsoft defender, but are using firefox so you dont benefit from smartscreen, you benefit from the google safe browsing So you already have: Browser level security - google safe browsing DNS level security - nextdns Extension level security - ublock origin Ublock origin already covers you on strict mode , so you would only be worrying about phishing sites I would say that if you use nextdns on so called strict settings ,where you have blocking of newly registered domains etc. you really dont need extension of any kind for antiphishing So if you can spot phishing sites , you dont need extensions, but if unsure you should be probably use netcraft to cover your weak spot By looking your config here on MalwareTips, it seems to me that you can spot phishing/fake campaing and you should not need extension to protect you against phishing, youre more advanced user than average joe wich only is relying on smartscreen/ google safe browsing only, but this is just my personal opinion i would wait for more replys so you can make your decision better [/QUOTE]
