Suggestion: Would you mind changing the extension example (Honey) in the JS Chrome Extension tutorial?

Hello. I just got into the Chrome extension part of JavaScript ( Learn to code with Scrimba ), so far so good, but the part where the instructor used the Honey extension as an example of Chrome extension and called it great because it can gather discounts put me off a little bit, because the Honey extension has been exposed to be a scam and went viral.

It might be posted before Honey was exposed. Maybe it’s not relevant to the whole course, but I just thought there are better examples of extensions to show than Honey.

Saying this because I want to spread awareness, in case someone thinks it’s cool when doing the course and decided to go install Honey. I just thought this would paint a bad picture on Scrimba now that it’s exposed.

Hey @Jonathan-Levi thanks for the notice here. Super unfortunately about that controversy popped up with Honey. But yes it was created a while before that event. Have sent this to the team to look and so we’ll make edits where needed.

Thanks again!
