Developer comments

This extension allows users to quickly look up IP addresses, domains, or general search terms on Shodan. If a query returns no results, it may mean that Shodan has not indexed information for the specified term, or certain advanced search capabilities may require a Shodan account. This extension only provides direct access to Shodan’s existing data and does not interact with or perform background queries on Shodan without user initiation.

To optimize browser performance and conserve resources, it’s recommended to keep these extensions disabled when they are not in use. You can easily enable any extension when you need to perform a lookup or access specific information, then disable it afterward. This approach helps reduce the extensions' impact on system memory and keeps your browser running smoothly.
