Reviews of dnssec validator:
This plugin does not work. It is enabled, but does not do anything.
Does not put anything in the address bar. Settings page works, it's enabled, just doesn't apparently do anything. And on the "support" page the link provided gives a 404 not found error.
Great tool! Really useful and I wish Google Chrome had this functionality already build in. It would be great if the version available here could be upgrade to the latest, so it will include TLSA validation as well.
