PSA: Uninstall Steam Inventory Helper Extension

[Fistacles]

If you use the chrome extension, i highly recommend getting rid of it ASAP. The chrome extension just pushed out an update that asks for permission for pretty much everything and, when given, logs everything you do in chrome, the sites you go to, and a bunch of other shady stuff. Dont know how many people have it, but If you use it for inventory management and ease of access, i highly recommend uninstalling it.

some context and more info on reddit
