      Whoever is driven to install this "NewsGuard" extension, be aware that you are disclosing your browsing history.https://twitter.com/wikileaks/status/1084876278065446913 …

      Microsoft adds neocon app "NewsGuard" to its Edge webrowser by default pushing U.S. security state news imperialism across the world. Gives green tick rating for Voice of America & Fox News but red mark for @WikiLeaks despite admitting perfect accuracy. https://www.newsguardtech.com/our-advisory-board/ … pic.twitter.com/atd0Ouucdy

      For each site you visit, there will be a connection to "api.newsguardtech[.]com/check/[hostname of visited site]". The result will be cached locally for at most 30 minutes.pic.twitter.com/34odfhn7rA

      I don't see this browsing history disclosure being mentioned in the extension's privacy policy -- only that it uses Google Analytics: https://www.newsguardtech.com/privacy-policy/ pic.twitter.com/zPv11fCXjM

      Google Analytics is used to gather information about when you open the extension popup panel. The gathered information include the hostname of the site loaded in the current tab -- i.e. more browsing history leakage.pic.twitter.com/ExWFLtqdC3

      So in summary, "NewsGuard" get this information: - The sites you visit - When you visited these sites, +- 30 minutes, or with better accuracy if you open the extension's popup panel - You public IP address - Your browser, OS, language (through HTTP headers)
