#1 Re: Epic Privacy Browser - Privacy Features & Privacy Concerns » Don't Allow Extensions - Trust Will Be Compromised » 2014-05-08 16:51:13

A couple thoughts on this: if you're not going to allow extensions, don't use the standard Chrome preferences page that has a link for "Advanced font settings" that says explicitly it requires an extension.

On the other hand, I think it would be great if the Epic folks could certify extensions as safe and sign them with a private key.  Then include the public key in the browser to decrypt the extension when installing it.  Not all extensions compromise security, but I would prefer to let the experts decide which ones are safe.
