Chrome will now display a new badge designating \u201cFeatured\u201d extensions or \u201cEstablished Publishers\u201d to keep users safe and free from malicious content.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no secret that you can quickly find all sorts of <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">theme<\/a>s, extensions, and add-ons with malicious intent or that don\u2019t work correctly, and this is Google\u2019s most significant step in addressing the problem.<\/p>\n<p>This will help prevent users from adding potential harmful extensions, but it\u2019ll make it easier to discover the best ones, too. That\u2019s because trusted developers that earn a featured or established publisher badge will be clearly visible, and rank higher in search results. That way, we won\u2019t have to scroll through pages of junk to find a helpful add-on.<\/p>\n<p>Dealing with shady extensions or web store purchases isn\u2019t new. It\u2019s a long-standing problem on the Microsoft Store, even on Windows 11. This looks similar to Mozilla\u2019s <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/support.mozilla.org\/en-US\/kb\/recommended-extensions-program\">recommended extensions program<\/a>\u00a0for Firefox.<\/p>\n<p>For Google Chrome, the first badge you\u2019ll start seeing is the\u00a0Featured badge. Google will add a special badge to any add-on or extension that meets its user experience and design standards, ensuring a good experience for anyone that chooses to use it.<\/p>\n<p>And if you happen to find an add-on you like, you\u2019ll even be able to check and see if Google trusts that developer. The new\u00a0Established Publisher badges should help promote developers who have verified their identity with Google and use safe practices with design, privacy, user experience, etc. As Google put it, these developers maintain a \u201cpositive track record with Google services.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Either way, this is an excellent step toward making it easier to find useful add-ons from developers users can trust. It\u2019s important to note that any developer team with a positive track record should instantly get the Established Developer badge. However, the Featured badge will be rewarded on a case-by-case basis, and each extension a user submits gets tested and evaluated by a Chrome team member.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll start seeing both of these badges appear on the Google Chrome Web Store today.<\/p>\n<p><small>via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/chrome-web-store-badges-extensions-discovery\/\">AndroidPolice<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
