Someone I know recently showed me that extension. I replied to them with “why bother with a browser extension, just paste the DOI into Anna’s Archive and it’ll show up 99% of the time” and showed it to them on their computer. It then showed a message along the lines of “you can access this file, but not here. Go to this site instead”.
They were signed into their university account. As you use that extension yourself, do you know if that’s normal behavior? I’m afraid the extension flagged this person at the campus IT department or something like that
When using the extension on the article above, and using my university as the institute, I get: “Article available here Your library has this article available for you in a different database. [Get Citation] [Access Article]”. When using Anna’s Archive, I get “Library Access This extension will open when you are looking at databases that your library subscribes to. This will help you access the resources provided by your library.”
If I am using Lean Library Open as an institute and I am on Anna’s Archive, I get: “Lean Library Open The extension will only be active when you are on an academic site. If you have any questions, contact us”.

I haven’t had any issues with it to be honest.
