Yet Another Flags

Abandoned plugin, for correct operation it requires a connection to the creator's website, which has been abandoned and no longer works, so the plugin no longer works as it cannot connect to the geolocation database hosted on its website.

This particular extension sends every base URL you visit to 46.102.244.73 on tcp/8080. This is alarming as other extensions for other browsers, such as FlagFox on Firefox, do not send URLs you visit to 'home base'. The description of the application does not mention this little detail and the permissions warnings do not really tell you this is going to happen. The privacy implications are outrageous. Obviously, this is how the extension is designed, but the extension should have, at minimum, a local CIDR database that doesnt require a lookup for each URL you visit with the ability to opt in more targeted geolocation data if the user allows it.

Security-Nightmare? Seems to collect and sell browser histories?

Not working any more.

Web page loadings stalls with this plugin. Can not recommend.

uses DNS = useless

Plugin abandoned by the author, requires a connection to a database located on his website that no longer exists.

Pop up not working....

This extension is virtually useless now. It hasn't been updated in 5 years and for half the websites I visit, even popular ones, the extension doesn't display a flag at all. For the other half the flags are wrong quite often. Moving on to greener pastures.

its not working now

I BET IT'S SPYWARE

After installing this extension it disabled my ability to Ctrl+button in chrome when it's full screened.

Flags disappeared less thatn a month ago from my addresse/search bar but chrome says it is still installed. What's wrong?

It seems better than the chrome flag, but the database is not complete...! and newly site that change thier server this extention haven't them in Database...

No refresh on IP change.

in firefox no block took place, though; an anti-virus is existing!!!

Not accurate

It works fairly well but It seems that it is not using the local dns / hosts at all. If something in my hosts file is set to another ip, it still gives the one specified in whatever it is using. This makes it pretty useless to me, it took me a while to know that this was the case, wasting a lot of my time.

After a Chrome update the flag icon shows up with the menu buttons rather than flush right on the URL bar itself, cluttering the menu bar unfortunately.

It seems it uses its own DNS cache or queries, so in the event of a ip change (ie when using cloudflare), it may show discrepancies between it's reported IP and the IP chrome says it's accessing.

For some reason my FlagFox app on Firefox shows Wikipedia servers to be located in the Netherlands, while this one displays USA. Go figure...
