Lower quality product than krypton was. This addon has insane permissions its asking for that it absolutely does not need and it doesnt even seem to work at all anyway, its not detected then they want me to pay for this crap? maybe if they gave me the source code I would consider it.

Doesn't work with Google while Krypton did. The "Learn More" link in the extension description leads to a 404. Things don't look promising now that Akamai has taken this over.
