Protected-URLs.md Normal file

Chrome and Firefox (and other browsers) do not allow websites or extensions to open some URLs. These privileged locations include:
- Pages that start with `chrome://…`, `about:...` or `edge:...`
- Pages like `chrome://history/`
- Pages like `about:config`
- Pages like `about:preferences`
These pages can not be accessed via apps or extensions for security reasons. This is why a bookmark added to nightTab with a privileged browsers URL will not open.
One of the goals of this project is also to not need any additional [users permissions](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv2/permission_warnings/) to run. As such there are no plans to access user bookmarks saved to the browser.
