Is FoxFilter safe?

Clean risk

FoxFilter reads each page's URL, title, metadata, and HTML body in every frame for local filtering.

FoxFilter's content script runs on all websites and frames, then collects the current page URL, title, meta tags, and HTML body after the page loads. It sends that page content to the extension's background script, where it is compared with the user's local filter settings and may trigger a local blocking alert.

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.
