Chrome says Overlay is accessing to the browser history

[baruchiro]

A quick research gave me this information:

The tabs permission will add a warning of Read your browsing history, that's because I can listen to chrome.tabs.onUpdate and record the active browser history, from now on.

I see the best practice is to use activeTab, we should check if we can use it instead of tabs.

Links:

overlay/src/manifest.chrome.json

Line 40 in bda5fc7

"permissions": ["storage", "tabs"],

Chrome extension tabs permissions shows "Read your browsing history"
The tabs warning
Use the activeTab permission

What to do

You need to change the tab permission on the manifest files to activeTab.

Overlay is accessing all tabs when the user changing the settings from the Popup, but changing the permission will break it.
Instead, we need to use tabs.onActivated to actively check if the setting changed when a tab becomes active.

Also, check other usages of browser.tabs are not broken.
