at first it worked, i thought wow this is exactly what im looking for but the next day i loaded up google i highlighted some text, and the annoying popup happened i checked to see if the extension was running it was this is not working 100% exactly and as intended if i can get this to work again, then i might be inclined to improve the rating from 1 star to much higher
No longer works
No longer working. :( (First URL at which I noticed this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MLBPA_Baseball#:~:text=MLBPA%20Baseball%2C%20known%20in%20Japan,%2FGenesis%2C%20and%20Game%20Gear.)
Does not seem to be removing the highlights in the inital search, does this need an update?
This extension stopped working for me. It's installed and on, but it's no longer doing its job. Google is the king of annoyance thought to be convenience, without the ability to disable their B.S. May be time to switch search engines.
does not read/edit any webpage, so it doen't do anything
I came to this extension late, but I was glad to have found it. That said, it stopped doing what it says on the tin about a month ago, and I'm having to deal with these infuriating highlights constantly again, and it's like this extension isn't even installed on my browser. Very frustrating. I'm hoping whoever developed this extension can figure out a work-around, because quite frankly it's a stroke of genius (when it works)!
