Context-Aware Verdict

HIGH
Risk Level
Trust Factors:
- The extension has a relatively low number of users (315), which could indicate that it is not widely trusted or popular.
- The lack of developer information and a detailed description raises some concerns about the transparency and trustworthiness of the extension.
Concerns:
- The extension requests the "storage" permission, which allows it to store data locally. While this permission is not inherently malicious, it could potentially be misused to store sensitive information without the user's knowledge.
- The extension injects content scripts into all websites (<all_urls>), which is a broad and potentially dangerous permission. This could allow the extension to read sensitive data, modify website content, or even steal credentials.
Recommendations:

1. Exercise caution when installing this extension, as the lack of developer information and the broad content script injection raise significant security concerns.

2. If you decide to use this extension, consider running it in a separate Chrome profile or an isolated browsing environment to minimize potential risks.

3. Regularly review the extension's permissions and behavior, and promptly remove it if you notice any suspicious activities or unauthorized data access.

4. Consider using alternative extensions from reputable developers with clear privacy policies and limited permissions, as they may pose a lower security risk.
