Is Image Upscaler safe?

Clean risk

Image Upscaler sends user-selected image URLs to Imgkits when the context-menu upscaling option is used.

When you right-click an image and choose the extension's upscaling option, Image Upscaler reads that image's URL from the page. It sends the encoded image URL to Imgkits' upscaling API so the remote service can process it.
