Installing and using the extension for the first time gives a bad impression by doing some dubious security scan to sell you a subscription. From an effectiveness standpoint, it didn't flag newer phishing sites that I tested it again other than noting there was no information. I suppose that's the idea in terms of judging by community reputation, but just because a site doesn't get a red or yellow icon doesn't mean it's safe. Also, the community reputation model can breakdown when the rated site is controversial such as those belonging to political figures. For example, one website I checked of a sitting elected official was marked as 18+ and gruesome. The site was just fine but it seems opposition partisans wanted to make it look bad.
