Extension restricting hardwareConcurrency

When this extension is enabled, my available navigator.hardwareConcurrency cores drop from 10 to 2. Is there a setting in the extension to not limit this? Otherwise I'll have to uninstall it.

Chrome suddenly blocking DDG Essentials ext

On 6/4/24, around 3 AM, I noticed Chrome was blocking DDG search engine. After trying 6 diff techniques to restore it, I resorted to completely removing the Essentials from my list of Extensions with the intention of simply getting it again from Chrome store a little later. Then I was suddenly permitted to make DDG be my default search again. Now, Chrome is blocking the ability to obtain Essentials from the Chrome Store.

Stopped working. Have been using it for a very long time.

When opening new tab, or highlighting text (in Chrome) and right clicking to search with DDG, it throws an error message: "This site can’t be reached duckduckgo.com took too long to respond."

https://duckduckgo.com : same

I have tried 2 down detectors, but both is showing nothing is wrong.

google removes your site constantly

any search is coming back not found surprisingly google search works and no evidence that you are downloaded.
Which is making it appear that duckduckgo isnt working
