Is Criminal IP: AI-based Phishing Link Checker safe?

Clean risk

Criminal IP: AI-based Phishing Link Checker sends visited HTTP(S) hosts to Criminal IP and DNS lookup endpoints.

When enabled with an API key, the extension checks completed HTTP(S) tab navigations by sending the visited host, and optionally the path, to Criminal IP reputation endpoints. It also resolves hostnames through Google DNS and stores URL-to-IP mappings and domain or IP results in local extension storage.
