I just noticed my xkit control panel has christmas lights now. That’s adorable.

PSA: XKit and Ads and Viruses

xkit-extension:

I’m still on my break, but I’ve been getting asks and seeing posts and reviews about stuff such as XKit displaying ads on their dashboards, posting stuff for them and more.

Let me assure you once again that there is no code in XKit that does anything like that. As you know, XKit is open source, and people contribute and review the code all the time. If I were to add something evil, you can be sure that would not go unnoticed. Please know that XKit:

  1. Does not display ads on Tumblr or any other website whatsoever.
  2. Does not publish posts or follow blogs without your permission.
  3. Only works on Tumblr.com (and does not work on HTTPS pages such as Tumblr login and settings pages).
  4. Does not collect any of your information.

If you are seeing ads or stuff on your blog that you did not post, or any other “weird” stuff like that, I recommend checking your browser’s extension/add-on pages for suspicious extensions. (Instructions for Chrome, Firefox and Safari)

If you are unsure, just delete them all and re-install them from their official website (and as for XKit, only download it from www.xkit.info)

Again, I respect your privacy, and would not do anything like the ones listed above. Thank you for reading.
