What our analysis found

Neptune | Ad Blocker, used by 80,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can inject scripts into pages. It was last updated in June 2024.

Analyst notes

Extension is an ad blocker that uses declarativeNetRequest and scripting to block ads and inject All remote resources are fetched from the publisher's own domain ([domain withheld]) and no user data is collected or exfiltrated. The behavior matches the stated purpose and permissions are necessary for ad blocking. The ML model and risk engine falsely flagged it due to broad permissions and dynamic rule fetching.
