Is Up Assistant safe?
Up Assistant uses remote rules to redirect matched pages and log the original and redirect URLs to ali-stat.info.
It downloads configuration from aliup-ext.info that can define URL match rules across any HTTP or HTTPS site. When a rule matches, it can navigate the tab to a server-defined replacement URL and, if logging is enabled, sends the original URL, redirect URL, request ID, initiator, and click ID to ali-stat.info.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 3 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.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 2.0.1. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.
