Enable or disable JavaScript without the hassle.

Toggle JavaScript provides a simple, easy-to-access browser button to enable or disable JavaScript globally. It was built with web developers in mind, but is equally useful for anyone who wants to quickly enable/disable JavaScript without having to dig deep into Chrome's Settings panel. Features: - global JavaScript master switch - reloads when toggling to ensure accurate rendering (optional since v1.3) More Info: There are similar extensions that enable or disable JavaScript per-domain, but I find this over-complicated so I decided to build a JavaScript "master switch". Also, similar extensions can cause pages to be rendered inaccurately after disabling JavaScript. This extension uses an auto-reload technique to ensure that pages are always rendered correctly after switching JavaScript on or off. I hope you enjoy using it - if you do, please tell your friends about it and help me out by giving it a positive review. Thanks!

Contextual Risk Factors
Risk Factor
High
The following context increases the overall risk:• 15% increase: Older manifest version lacks modern security controls
storage
Permission
Medium
This permission allows storing data locally in the browser. Rated Medium because it can persist sensitive user data, track user activities over time, and potentially store malicious payloads.
tabs
Permission
Medium
This permission enables tab management and monitoring. Rated Medium because it can track open tabs, access tab metadata, and monitor user browsing patterns.
Older Manifest Version
Risk Factor
Medium
This extension uses Manifest Version 2

The bundled manifest declares manifest_version 2 and includes the 'tabs' permission, but the published CWS manifest summary shows manifest_version 3 and only 'contentSettings' and 'storage'. This mismatch could indicate a delayed update or a listing discrepancy and should be investigated, though it does not appear malicious in context.

manifest.json (Line 1)
