Release notes:

  • The extension's ID [1] has been changed.
    The old ID was [email protected],
    the new one is [email protected].
    Some details:
    • The main reason is that the old ID has been disabled by Mozilla
      for Firefox 38+ because of a bug [2] and because the "old" add-on
      was unmaintained.
    • What does this mean?
      • With the new ID it's again possible to use RequestPolicy 0.5.*
        on Firefox 38 or later.
      • In addition to that, the changed ID allowed us to upload the
        add-on to Mozilla's Add-Ons website (aka AMO). You can find it
        at [3]. However, if you're reading this, the add-on might still
        be "unreviewed" [4] and therefore not to be found via search.
  • A warning is shown if the extension with the old extension ID is
    installed and enabled. It's not possible to have both add-ons
    enabled in the same browser at the same time.
