Context-Aware Verdict

LOW
Overall Risk
Trust Factors:

The extension has a perfect 5.0 rating, though this is based on only 4 reviews which limits its reliability as a trust indicator. With 7,000 users, it has a modest user base that suggests some level of community acceptance. The developer domain "browseaware.com" appears to be focused on browser safety tools, which aligns with the extension's stated purpose. The use of Manifest Version 3 demonstrates compliance with modern Chrome extension security standards.

Concerns:

The primary concern is the lack of detailed information about the extension's functionality - the description field is empty, making it difficult to assess whether the extension's capabilities match its name. With only 4 ratings despite 7,000 users, there's limited community feedback to gauge real-world performance and trustworthiness. The absence of clear developer information beyond the domain name reduces transparency about who is behind this extension.

Recommendations:

Given the minimal security findings and lack of concerning permissions, this extension appears relatively safe to use in your main Chrome profile. However, due to the limited description and sparse user feedback, consider monitoring the extension's behavior after installation. If you notice any unexpected changes to your browsing experience or search suggestions, consider removing it. The low user engagement (few reviews relative to downloads) suggests you should remain cautious and verify the extension performs as expected.
