XML & JSON Tools

The extension has very limited adoption with only 106 users and a single 5-star rating, making it difficult to assess reliability through user feedback. The developer domain apodemeo.com provides some legitimacy, though the extension's newness and minimal user base reduce confidence. The straightforward name "XML & JSON Tools" aligns with its likely purpose of data formatting and validation.

The primary concern is the storage permission, which allows the extension to store data locally on your device. While this permission might be justified for saving user preferences or processed data, it's worth noting that XML and JSON formatting tools could potentially function without persistent storage. The combination of low user adoption and data storage capability creates some uncertainty about data handling practices. The lack of detailed developer information and minimal user reviews make it harder to verify the extension's trustworthiness.

Given the medium risk level, consider running this extension in a separate Chrome profile if you need its functionality, especially if you'll be processing sensitive XML or JSON data. Monitor what data the extension might be storing and consider alternatives with larger user bases and more established reputations. If you proceed with installation, avoid processing confidential information until you can better assess the extension's behavior and data handling practices.
