Im sure there are ways around this instead of collecting all of the website content I visit. Could it not be feasible to have the user highlight what text he/she wants read to them? No data collection needed except for what was highlighted.jakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528926838891372189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37423427.post-653808323344376472011-11-04T10:18:07.235-07:002011-11-04T10:18:07.235-07:00You've not understood the permission.

If you'd like the extension to be able to read pages to you, then it will need to potentially have access to any page you visit. A more limited permission is "your data on the following websites:..." for an extension that handles just certain sites (e.g. a google search helper). Without one of these permissions, the extension will not have access to any of the pages you visit and, obviously, will not work.

Every time I think of Google I picture out Jim Carrey in his role as The Riddler with his invention that "reads" peoples thoughts in one of that Batman movie franchises.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
