Is Burrow: Gopherspace Explorer for Chrome safe?
Burrow rewrites gopher:// links and form entries through Floodgap's public Gopher proxy.
When a page contains a gopher:// link, Burrow changes it to a request to http://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/gw with the original Gopher host and path in the query string. The popup and information-page forms send the user-entered Gopher target to the same proxy.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
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.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Burrow contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
