Is FastForward safe?

Low risk

FastForward lets any website ask its content script to query or submit crowd-bypass URL records.

FastForward runs a content script on every website and listens for page-dispatched events that query or contribute records to its crowd-bypass service. Those events can include URL data, and query responses are sent back to the page that triggered them. The extension also stores a Work.ink bypass path in local storage and exposes that saved value through the same page event bridge until it is cleared.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed FastForward contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
