Advice Request Webwall extension - has anyone heard of it or used it?

[Captain Holly]

I found this in the Google store:

WebWall - Internet Security & Privacy Safety

WebWall is the best internet security and internet privacy safety protection available. It blocks trackers, threats, and much more.

chrome.google.com

It's an anti-tracking extension. I tried it and it does show a lot longer list of blocked trackers and websites. So far it has not blocked any of the sites I visit. Has anyone used this extension before or know if it is good, bad or indifferent? I can't seem to find much info on it other than the 5-star Google store reviews.

Thanks for any help.

I will answer my own thread I guess. I don't know what to think of Web Wall. When I added it to Chrome it did not say anything about a trial period but I used Chrome today and saw that the trial had ended, click here to continue protection. The link went to a file not found error. I did not take the bait and removed Web Wall. Maybe it is ok, maybe not. I do not think it is anything I desperately need. I never could find much info about it online either, other than the guy who started it began developing it 2 years ago.

And I think you answered for us as well, seems like a no go.
