What our analysis found

Block Cookies, used by 4,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in February 2025.

Analyst notes

The entire extension is two files: a CSS sheet that hides known cookie-banner selectors via `display:none` and a content script that queries for cookie-banner elements and either removes them, injects a one-line overflow-fix style rule, or clicks a 'reject all' button — no network requests, no data collection, no eval, no obfuscation, no external endpoints anywhere in the code. The ML score (0.44) is fully explained by the six `appendChild` calls (all appending `<style>` tags to fix scroll-lock side-effects) and the minuscule file size. One genuine anomaly: the bundled manifest declares zero permissions while the live CWS listing shows `tabs`, `activeTab`, and `storage` — however none of those APIs appear anywhere in the JavaScript, so the live manifest likely reflects a developer draft or forward-declared permissions that are unused; it does not evidence malicious capability. The publisher's 50% malicious rate across other extensions is a weak corroborating signal but insufficient to override clean source code.
