Is FMHY SafeGuard safe?

Medium risk

FMHY SafeGuard fetches unsafe-site reason text from GitHub and inserts it into search results as HTML.

The extension downloads unsafe-site reason text from raw.githubusercontent.com/fmhy/FMHYFilterlist and stores it locally. When a listed unsafe link appears in supported search results, it places the matching reason into the page using HTML insertion, so remote reason text can render as page content instead of plain text.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed FMHY SafeGuard 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.
