Browser Extension

Run reverse-image search from your own browser.

Some search engines block our datacenter IPs. Install this extension and your browser runs the reverse-image searches from your residential IP, the way they expect real traffic. We never see those queries, and your existing scan results get dramatically better recall.

Why this exists

Many reverse-image search engines challenge datacenter connections by default — even the best proxy infrastructure sees ~30% of reverse-image queries fail with HTTP 403. Your home internet has a residential IP that those engines treat as a legitimate human. The extension queries them on your behalf, ships the results back into your scan tab, and never logs anything we can see.

Install (manual, ~2 minutes)

Download extension.zip
  1. Download the zip above and unzip it (right-click → Extract).
  2. In Chrome / Edge / Brave: open chrome://extensions, toggle Developer mode (top right).
  3. Click Load unpacked, point at the folder you extracted.
  4. The Unimpersonationable badge appears in your toolbar. Pin it.
  5. Run a scan on unimpersonationable.com/scan — the extension auto-attaches and harvests engines we can't reach from our servers.

What the extension can and cannot do

Can

  • Run public reverse-image search from your residential IP
  • Send the parsed results back into your scan tab via postMessage

Cannot

  • Use your logged-in accounts or cookies — every search runs logged-out (public results only)
  • Read or upload anything from sites you don't actively visit
  • Send your browsing history anywhere
  • See your password manager / cookies for non-search-engine sites
  • Run when the scan tab is closed

Inspect what it does

The extension code that runs in your browser is right inside the zip you downloaded above. Open manifest.json,background.js,content.js, or any of the other files — every fetch, every permission, every line is plain JavaScript. We’d rather you read it than trust us.
