Is Citation Generator: InText safe?
Citation Generator: InText sends user-entered website citation URLs to public CORS proxy services.
When you generate a website citation, the extension reads the URL you typed into its popup and sends it to public proxy services so they can retrieve the page metadata. It tries AllOrigins first, then CodeTabs, and finally CORS Anywhere if earlier requests fail.
