Is FoE - Helper safe?
FoE - Helper uploads in-game profile and building data to api.foe-rechner.de when GlobalSend is enabled (on by default).
When the GlobalSend setting is active, the extension reads the player's in-game profile (player ID, username, portrait, guild ID, world) and Great Building data from the game page and posts it to api.foe-rechner.de on game startup. Game world list data is also transmitted unconditionally, regardless of the GlobalSend setting. The feature is marketed as guild coordination and can be disabled via the extension's settings.

Shared hosts - 11 hostnames
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.
