Is HOOBS Nest Sidecar safe?
HOOBS Nest Sidecar injects a captured Google issueToken URL and Cookie header into the Nest page DOM.
The extension watches Google OAuth issueToken requests and stores the full request URL plus the Cookie request header. When a user is on home.nest.com, it appends input elements containing those values to the page DOM, making the captured token URL and cookie string available there.
