How did you "notice" a suspicious element in the inspector? Do you routinely look at the DOM?

I did webdev for a long time, so yeah. If you want the story, I was looking into guix on asahi and ended up on https://www.asahi-guix.org/ which didn’t load anything, so I checked the page source and noticed the element.

I do. Then again, I’m a web developer so looking at the DOM is my day job.

The extension injects its ”gimme money” elements even on localhost pages.
