    Sounds to me like an extension that by design tracks every Web page you visit.

      Not necessarily and only those you comment.

      That’s the point, to comment any webpage. It’s clear you visited it if you comment it.

        Presumably it loads comments when you visit a page. That would send a request with the URL to whatever service they’re running.
