Is Birthday Basher safe?
Birthday Basher uses your Facebook session to read friends' birthdays and automatically send them messages and posts.
The extension runs a background timer that checks a schedule with the vendor's server, then uses your logged-in Facebook session to list today's and this month's birthdays. It fetches message text and images from the vendor's server and sends them through Facebook Messenger or your timeline. Friend data stays local; only the extension's own token is sent to the vendor backend.
