Is EditThisCookie2 safe?
EditThisCookie2 loads Google Analytics JavaScript in its privileged background page.
EditThisCookie2 registers a background script that creates a remote Google Analytics script element from ssl.google-analytics.com. Because the background page also has access to cookies, tabs, storage, and all URLs, that remote script runs in a privileged extension context.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
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.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 1.5.0. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.
