Is Axon Quick Look safe?

Clean risk

Axon Quick Look reads selected text on any site and sends it to an Axon quick-search endpoint.

Axon Quick Look runs a content script on all websites and captures text you select with the mouse. It stores that selection and, when the popup performs a quick search, posts the selected text as the search term to the configured Axon quick-search endpoint.

Same operator - 1 listing

Published under a different store account, but sharing the registered address, contact or declared legal entity this one gave the store.

Shared hosts - 3 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.
