Is Automatic Messenger ™ Translator safe?
Automatic Messenger Translator sends Facebook Messenger message text over plain HTTP when using its DeepL or GPT translation options.
The extension reads the text of incoming and outgoing Messenger chat messages from the page and forwards it to its own translation service to produce a translation. When the DeepL or GPT engine is selected, that message text is POSTed to translate-api.ext-api.com over unencrypted HTTP instead of HTTPS, unlike the extension's default Google engine and its Microsoft/Volcengine options, which all use HTTPS.

Shared hosts - 2 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.
