This Google Chrome extension records everything you do online: Uninstall it to protect your privacy.

Google Chrome extensions are a great help for users, who can access numerous features and tools installed in the browser itself , without having to access web portals or download third-party applications.

However, some of the extensions are reviewed and modified or canceled by Google, as they pose a security risk to users, as is the case with PDF Toolbox, a very useful extension that serves to merge and split PDFs, as well as to extract pages, rotate them or mix PDF documents directly from the computer, while also serving as a PDF to doc converter or PDF to xls format converter, among other things.

Although it seems very useful, and in fact it is, as this Google Chrome extension has accumulated more than two million downloads and has a rating of 4.2 on the Play Store, it poses a cybersecurity risk to users who have it installed, as cybersecurity expert Wladimir Palant points out.

This is according to cybersecurity expert Wladimir Palant, as this tool can access an external server and view the websites users have visited, allowing cybercriminals to access users' personal information and then sell this data to third-party sites.

Therefore, those who have this Google Chrome extension installed and are using it should uninstall it to protect their privacy, as there are websites that can convert and modify PDFs in various ways without having this extension installed.
