Context-Aware Verdict

MEDIUM
Risk Level
Trust Factors:
- The extension has a decent number of users (6,000) and a high rating (5.0), which suggests it is generally trusted by users.
- The developer information is provided, which adds some transparency.
Concerns:
- The extension requests the "unlimitedStorage" permission, which allows it to store an unlimited amount of data locally. This could potentially be a privacy concern if sensitive user data is being stored.
- The "activeTab" permission allows the extension to access the currently active tab, which could potentially be used for tracking or modifying user behavior without consent.
Recommendations:
- Consider running the extension in a separate Chrome profile or incognito mode to isolate its access to your browsing data.
- Review the extension's privacy policy and terms of service to understand how user data is collected, stored, and used.
- Monitor the extension's behavior and resource usage to ensure it is not consuming excessive system resources or engaging in any suspicious activities.
- If you have concerns about the extension's permissions or behavior, consider uninstalling it or seeking an alternative with fewer permissions.
