Why access my browsing activity?

I was about to install "Save as PDF" for my Chromebook, until I saw that by installing it one is granting the right to "access your tabs and browsing activity." This is unacceptable, and bizarre. Why would you need this access?

I think this really merits an explanation. Thank you.

Hello,

The extensions requires this permission as it needs to know the address of the web page you want to convert to PDF.
You can learn more about how the extension works here: https://pdfcrowd.com/save-as-pdf-addon/
