Damn Good Recipe Promos is an extension that is meant to combine recipes and advertisements. How does that work? Well, the extension should provide you with recipes and also show ads along with them. Most people are used to seeing online ads, and if they are bothered by them, they usually install ad-blockers and similar tools. Due to this, many people might ignore the fact that ads are shown at all. Well, this is the main reason our research team has classified this add-on as a potentially unwanted program, or PUP. Although it might seem to offer a good enough service – after all, it should offer recipes – the ads are an undesirable addition, so to speak. Do you want to be flooded with ads every time you browse the web? More important, do you want information about you recorded and shared amongst unknown parties? If none of this sounds good, delete Damn Good Recipe Promos.
If you have downloaded Damn Good Recipe Promos from chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/damn-good-recipe-promos/jdhkcnjpnmaiifhjiicggicmpomaiabf (the Chrome Web Store), you must know that this extension can read browsing history. You also know that its main service is to show you ads, not recipes. The description linked to the installer does not even explain how it delivers recipes. It simply states that it can provide you with relevant ads to ensure that the “DamnGoodRecipe” service remains free. Well, considering that you can find any recipe you like for free using numerous websites and tools, this does not seem like the best deal. That being said, if you seek out ads, discounts, promo codes, offers, and similar deals on your own, you might not mind the ads delivered by Damn Good Recipe Promos. Well, according to our researchers, the way these ads might be shown could be very annoying and intrusive. For example, the search results could be modified to include ads, and this is why you might decide to remove the potentially unwanted program.
