Context-Aware Verdict

MEDIUM
Risk Level
Trust Factors:
- The extension has a relatively low number of users (104), which could indicate a lack of widespread adoption or vetting.
- The developer information is not provided, making it difficult to assess their reputation or track record.
- The extension has not been updated in over two years, which raises concerns about its maintenance and compatibility with the latest browser versions.
Concerns:
- The extension requests broad permissions without specifying the required ones, which could potentially lead to privacy or security risks.
- The use of an older manifest version (Manifest V2) suggests that the extension may not adhere to the latest security best practices and restrictions introduced in Manifest V3.
Recommendations:

1. Exercise caution when installing this extension, as the lack of developer information and the low user count make it difficult to assess its trustworthiness.

2. Consider using a separate Chrome profile or a dedicated browser instance when running this extension to isolate any potential risks.

3. Regularly check for updates or alternatives, as the extension's age and lack of recent updates could indicate compatibility issues or unaddressed vulnerabilities.

4. Review the extension's permissions carefully and ensure that they align with its stated functionality. If any permissions seem unnecessary or overly broad, consider finding an alternative extension with more transparent and limited permissions.
