Is Country Flags & IP Whois safe?
Displays a toolbar country flag for the current website’s server location.
This extension compares the site’s IP address against an offline MaxMind GeoLite database to show the server’s physical location, without contacting a server for the location lookup. Clicking the toolbar icon provides additional geolocation or Whois information, and the right-click menu offers lookup tools such as SSL checking, traceroute, ping, DNS/Whois lookup, HTTP headers, and URL shortening.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 3 hostnames
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.
