I appreciate this extension and all the work that was put in it but can we have the option to disable the red "breathing" glow effect? It is rather distracting as it tends to block parts of the website as the glow effect tends to stack where there are a lot of affiliate links, and it also causes my laptop fans to ramp up to 100% which is rather annoying as well. Checking the system temps, just a handful of affiliate links will cause my CPU to peg 90 degrees C and thermal throttle, switch to a tab without affiliate links and the CPU returns to 63 degrees C, this part of the extension is rather poorly optimized.

Cool idea - but loads Google Font on every page you visit wher this font isn't present: // Load Space Mono font if (!document.querySelector('link[href*="Space+Mono"]')) { const fontLink = document.createElement('link'); fontLink.href = 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Space+Mono:wght@400;700&display=swap'; fontLink.rel = 'stylesheet'; document.head.appendChild(fontLink); } Not very good for privacy.
