Is 2FAS Auth - Two factor authentication safe?
2FAS Auth sends the active tab's site origin to 2FAS when you request a two-factor token.
When you use the toolbar action, context menu, or keyboard shortcut to request a 2FAS token, the extension reads the active tab URL and sends its origin as the domain for the request. The request goes to 2FAS's API and the extension then uses a 2FAS WebSocket connection to receive the encrypted token response for autofill.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 2 hostnames
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
