Is Bolt VPN & Proxy - Free VPN for Chrome safe?

Clean risk

Bolt VPN & Proxy can disable other enabled proxy extensions after showing a conflict warning.

When the popup opens, Bolt VPN & Proxy checks your installed extensions for enabled extensions that use the proxy permission. If it finds any, it shows a warning that another extension is controlling proxy settings, and its button sends a command that disables each matching extension.
