Is Click switch socks5 safe?

Low risk

Click switch socks5 records page resource hostnames and saves proxy-routing domain relationships locally.

Click switch socks5 runs on all pages and inventories hostnames from embedded resources such as images, scripts, stylesheets, media, objects, embeds, iframes, and image inputs. It also observes active-tab web requests to build cross-site domain relationships, then stores those routing lists in Chrome local storage for proxy configuration. The reviewed finding did not identify a remote endpoint receiving this data.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.
