I’m also reading (and enjoying) A Memory Called Empire.

Other recent good SF reads: Lagoon by Nnedi Okorafor, Rosewater by Tade Thompson (both first contact/alien invasion books set in Nigeria).

Well, this is a weird example but look at the output of this XML https://thesession.org/tunes/new?format=xml with and without the extension enabled. With the extension, you can see the JavaScript dumped to the screen.
