Is Direct File Link Downloader safe?
Direct File Link Downloader lets any webpage prompt downloads for selected file-like URLs through its all-sites content script.
Direct File Link Downloader runs a content script on every site and watches selected text for URL-like file links. When its injected popup is clicked, the extension asks its background worker to start a browser download for that URL after only checking that the path looks file-like.
