Is Amazon Prime Subtitles & Dictionary safe?
Amazon Prime Subtitles & Dictionary adds your email and last watched Amazon URL to its uninstall URL.
When the extension prepares its uninstall page, it builds a URL on appforlanguage.com that includes your stored email, the last Amazon or Prime Video page it recorded, the website name, and subtitle language choices. That URL is opened when you uninstall the extension, sending those values as query parameters to the developer's site.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
4 other listings published from this account, 116k+ users between them. 2 of them carry a finding.
Shared hosts - 5 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.
