Is Changedetection.io Website Monitor safe?
Changedetection.io Website Monitor sends the current tab URL to your configured API when you add a watch.
When you use the popup to add a watch, the extension reads the active tab's URL and submits it as JSON to the endpoint URL saved in extension settings. The request includes the configured API key in an x-api-key header and goes to /api/v1/watch with the extension version in the query string.
