Is DevTools Media Panel safe?

Clean risk

DevTools Media Panel records WebRTC and getUserMedia metadata from HTTPS pages for its devtools panel.

The extension injects a script into HTTPS pages at document start and wraps RTCPeerConnection plus getUserMedia calls. It records WebRTC API calls, ICE candidate and stats details, stream and track IDs, track labels, and requested media constraints for display in its devtools panel.
