Several of the extensions you recommended at the end (Adblock Plus, The Great Suspender, LastPass) are widely considered to be compromised

I haven't heard anything about the issues with AdBlock Plus outside places like this, and I have no idea what you've heard about LastPass. I don't know what The Great Suspender is.

You might want to expand on the problems in case this isn't a fluke.
