I don't think it's temporary, if what the reviews say is to believe it has been dead for a while and has questionable practice to begin with.

I don't think that extension was an official one, it was not linked from the website so the reviews / download count don't really say much.

They suffer from the same problem. They can't update the extension because google changed the policies. Now any attempt to remove paywalls is not allowed
