Is Block Cookies safe?
Block Cookies sends the active tab URL to Rollbar when a user reports a website from the popup.
When the report button is used, the extension reads the current active tab URL and passes it to Rollbar. This happens from the popup after the user action, using the bundled Rollbar client and access token.
