Is Auto Quality for YouTube™ safe?

Low risk

Auto Quality for YouTube shares saved quality and auto-pause settings with page scripts through document events.

The extension runs a bridge on every website that listens for extension-specific page events. If a page sends those event names, the bridge reads the extension's saved YouTube quality and auto-pause settings and sends the values back on the page as document events. No remote host recipient is shown for these settings.
