I think you misslopped something. The slop you linked actually deletes '404' bookmarks and does not offer JSON export.

So what am I doing wrong in this? Like, what's the issue?

Your description is not accurate and quite misleading.

>QuickVPN runs entirely in your browser

Like I said: What do you mean with this? You did not build a "VPN" that runs in the browser. Your extension sets up a web proxy.

And worse:

>or log user data.

You're implying you're running some kind of "no log" service which is false.

What does that even mean? This AI-coded extension uses a Cloudflare worker to generate API keys for the proxy service "webshare.io". It then uses the Chrome proxy API (https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/api/p...) to set up a Webshare proxy server.

>or log user data

Webshare.io log everything they can, as expected (https://www.webshare.io/privacy-policy)
