FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Can I get in trouble for using this?
I don’t know, but you shouldn’t since this does not give you any unfair advantage above others, and doesn’t directly influence the registration process.
Can you add feature X or Y?
Well, probably! See below for more information on how to request a feature.
Can you add an auto-registration feature?
Sure, pay me a million AED in cash. (Actually no, because AUS clearly does not allow tools that speed up registration processes.)
Are you stealing my data? Can this harm my computer in any way?
If you can take my word for it, no. If you cannot take my word for it, the code is right here infront of you. All the code here is exactly the code inside the extension. You can unpack the extension yourself and check…
