Is Aliexpress Search by image safe?
Aliexpress Search by image sends selected image URLs or inline image data to SearchByImage when you run an image search.
When you use the extension's image-search action, it opens SearchByImage with the selected or current image URL. If the image is inline base64 data, the background script posts that image data to SearchByImage and then opens the returned result page.
