**This random chrome extension installed itself today**

Can anyone tell me anything about this extension? I have never heard of the extension or company before.

I believe it was automatically installed by one of these apps:

  1. Uh not nice.

    uBlock Origin, Google Docs Offline, Google Play Music should not be the Issue i also have them installed and i don’t have this Problem.

    Im also unsure if a Extension can install other Extensions.

    Edit: Don’t forget to Report the Extension

  2. Of the extensions you listed above, the only one we have in common is uBlock Origin, and I also had Privacy Test automatically installed. Maybe they experienced a supply chain attack?

  3. Privacy Test appears to be from HotCleaner and was formerly Click&Clean. If you had Click&Clean as an extension, it likely got updated.
