Is Fetch Video Downloader safe?

Clean risk

Fetch Video Downloader records media request URLs and selected headers to build its download list.

Fetch Video Downloader watches HTTP and HTTPS media-related requests in browser tabs and records matching request details. It stores each item's URL, method, media format, content type, size or name when available, and selected request headers in per-tab memory so the popup can show downloadable media.

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.
