Is This Outdated?
Description from store

Ever read an entire article only to realize it was written 4 years ago?
"Is This Outdated?" adds a small, color coded badge to your browser showing the age of every webpage you visit. At a glance, you know if what you are reading is fresh or ancient.

HOW IT WORKS
Install and forget. The extension automatically detects publish and modification dates on every page you visit. No clicking, no setup, no account.

WHAT THE BADGE MEANS
Green: Content is under 6 months old. Fresh and likely current.
Yellow: Content is 6 to 18 months old. Some facts may have changed.
Orange: Content is 1.5 to 3 years old. Information may be outdated.
Red: Content is over 3 years old. Verify before relying on it.
Gray: No date found on this page.

Click the badge for full details including exact dates and how the date was detected.
