Extension to read messages without your friends knowing

In plain words

This browser extension, launched in 2014, allows users to read messages from friends without those friends knowing they've seen the messages. It's designed for people who want to view conversations privately without triggering read receipts or notifications. The extension modifies how message platforms display viewing activity, enabling discrete message consumption.
