Tab Tosser automatically closes tabs I have ignored for too long to free myself of digital clutter (with some safety features).

Admittedly, I made it, but other people seem to enjoy it and Apple thought it was such a great idea that it later built the functionality into Safari.

The truly problematic part is that Mozilla did not immediately block the extension for executing arbitrary remote code that is controlled by the antivirus company.
Mozilla has recently blocked several translation extensions for loading remote code from Google Translate, Firefox users finding their workflows for accessing information being broken, with no good workaround, other than switching to Chrome.
