Please ignore this message.

I was wrongly judgin by two factors:

  • User agent as used by previews deleted profile which is actually a common one. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/112.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
  • URLs freebitco.in photolessons.org

I'll use the flag button next time.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Additional factors you should consider:

  1. Does the script take you to photoloessons.org without your permission/knowledge. This is a rhetorical question... it currently does not. In other words the target site "could be" malicious in nature however that doesn't make the .user.js spam. If you want to warn other users about a possible bad site you may with some tact. However using a very short label without citation like you did is very bad. If you think the script needs mitigation from Moderators and up then flag the Script itself. Comments are currently done by flagging the User and then referencing what you are talking about with a brief reason why you think it should be evaluated.
  2. Don't hijack an Authors own issue... make your own if you are wanting to let someone know your experience. If you have a question, mark it clearly with a question mark and don't assume everyone knows what you are talking about.

User agent as used by previews deleted profile which is actually a common one.

Dare I ask what you mean here? Again the .user.js script is not currently to fault here no matter how you possibly explain this.
