The extension has a decent rating of 4.5 stars from 563 users, which suggests some level of user satisfaction. However, several critical trust indicators are missing or concerning. There is no identifiable author or developer information provided, which makes it impossible to verify the legitimacy or reputation of the creator. The lack of basic metadata like user count, last update date, and size raises questions about the extension's maintenance and popularity.
The primary concern is the complete absence of developer identification and contact information, which is a significant red flag for any browser extension. Extensions without clear authorship make it difficult to establish accountability or trust. The use of Manifest Version 2 is also problematic as it operates under less restrictive security policies compared to the newer Manifest V3 standard. The missing technical details about permissions and functionality make it impossible to assess what the extension actually does or what data it might access.
Given the lack of transparency about the developer and missing technical information, I recommend extreme caution. Consider finding an alternative extension with clear developer information and updated security standards. If you must use this extension, run it in a separate Chrome profile to isolate any potential risks from your main browsing environment. Monitor the extension's behavior closely and remove it immediately if you notice any suspicious activity.
