Is ASBPlayer: Learn with Subs safe?
ASBPlayer creates a page-accessible subtitle frame that can forward AnkiConnect POSTs to localhost.
ASBPlayer injects its subtitle interface as a srcdoc frame on pages matched by its broad content scripts. If a visited page controls that frame, it can have the extension send allowed AnkiConnect actions, such as finding or updating notes or storing media, to the configured local AnkiConnect service.
