Check what your browser extensions can actually see, then delete the ones that see too much

Chrome's permission list is the short version; the privacy policies are the long one.

Afam Onyimadu opened Chrome's extension details page for LastPass, Honey, Rakuten and Grammarly, then read each extension's own privacy policy beside it. Chrome's plain line, read your browsing history, covered far more than it suggested: Rakuten collects information about the pages you visit, Honey records page views, search queries and purchase details, and Grammarly reads what you type on a best-effort basis, excluding sensitive fields. He deleted those three, kept LastPass, and moved to self-hosted LanguageTool and Bitwarden out of preference rather than necessity. His own caution is worth keeping: the extensions he removed are not bad ones, and everyone draws the privacy line in a different place.
