Is Chat Translator - Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp and More safe?
Chat Translator sends chat message text and an account token over plain HTTP to translate-api.ext-api.com for DeepL and GPT translation.
When a user selects the DeepL or GPT translation engine, the extension sends the chat text being translated, along with the account's temporary token, to the vendor's translation API over unencrypted HTTP. The default Google and Microsoft engines use HTTPS. This only happens once the user is logged in to the vendor account.
