Is Automatic LINE APP Translator safe?

Low risk

Automatic LINE APP Translator sends LINE chat text over plain HTTP to translate-api.ext-api.com when the Pro DeepL engine is selected.

Message text from the extension's own LINE window is translated using Google or Volcengine over HTTPS by default. If the Pro-only 'DeepL (beta)' engine is chosen, the message text and target language are POSTed unencrypted to translate-api.ext-api.com, and the response is shown as the translation.

Shared hosts - 19 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.
