    Hello, I use adblock for google chrome, the most popular extensions available. I have a question about the "Read and change all your data on opened pages" permission from what I have read, it does not interfere with my data, it only serves to block ads on pages and it is forced by the google chrome browser. However, in adblock's privacy policy, I read that some data is collected in addition to credit cards and stored safely. Supposedly he writes that they only collect basic and anonymous data and make them public sometimes. My question is whether it is really safe, or does AdBlock save and store my passwords to various websites and social networks, bank, cards, etc.?

    Don't use adblock, change to uBlock Origin.

    I prefer AdBlock, besides, I asked for permissions, not for an alternative program.

    Adblock has a list of acceptable ads, it doesn't make sense to use it, but just do it as you like.

    Adblock does not save passwords.

    In fact, even Windows is tracking you ... Only that nobody uses your logins, passwords and card numbers. It is unnecessary for them, but if you start to write to a colleague to plant a bomb somewhere, the police will immediately appear and the coal will appear ...
