Daily Bible Reflection Extension

The Daily Bible Reflection Extension is developed by a team of programmers employed at Newtabtools.com as stated on the Chrome Web Store page — Chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/daily-bible-reflection/coolkkbfjkkpfbkifcmdjmmfkdhfopml. The Daily Bible Reflection Extension is aimed at devoted Christians, as well as people who may be interested in inspirational quotes from one of the central works of religion in the world. The Daily Bible Reflection Extension is very similar in functionality to the Daily Bible Guide Toolbar by Mindspark and the Daily Bible Verses Toolbar from Polarity Technologies Ltd. However, the Daily Bible Reflection Extension does not ask to access your apps, extensions and themes. Instead, the Daily Bible Reflection Extension needs the following privileges in Chrome:

  • Read and change all your data on the websites you visit.
  • Replace the page you see when opening a new tab.
  • Read and change your browsing history.

The Daily Bible Reflection Extension is categorized as an ad-supported Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by Newtabtools.com. The Daily Bible Reflection Extension is designed to change your new tab and add a search by Yahoo, as well as links to content on Bible.com/bg/verse-of-the-day, Biblegateway.com/devotionals/ and Amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=bible. After you add the Daily Bible Reflection Extension and open a new tab page, the Omnibox would load the following address 'chrome-extension://coolkkbfjkkpfbkifcmdjmmfkdhfopml/new_tab.html' that points to an offline page on the local disk. The Daily Bible Reflection Extension is designed to record your IP address, OS type, browser version, the sites you access, as well as the search terms typed ion Google, Yahoo and Bing. The information is sold to marketers, and that is how PC users are able to benefit from the Daily Bible Reflection New Tab without paying with their credit card online. In the digital world of today your browsing history, online habits, and recent downloads are valued by advertisers who are looking to sell various goods. Selling that type of information through the use of free applications like the Daily Bible Reflection Extension has become a traditional monetization method for the past two decades. Computer users who may not be comfortable with using the Daily Bible Reflection Extension may want to remove the app and load the content on Bible.com and Biblegateway.com via bookmarks.
