[QUOTE="Arequire, post: 910564, member: 59283"] The issue is there's no real way for extension developers to contact their entire userbase. The only way I can think of is to add a display notifications permission to the extension and then use that to communicate the ownership change. (I'm ignorant of the restrictions placed on extensions so I don't know whether this kind of mass notification would be allowed or not.) Regardless, while I agree the developers don't deserve to be harassed, they do deserve to be criticized. What they did was irresponsible and demonstrated either an ignorance of the risks selling their extensions could pose, and/or a complete disregard for their users' safety. [/QUOTE]
