Is Just Read safe?

Clean risk

Just Read posts shared reader-view pages, including the URL and article HTML, to justread.link for premium users.

When a premium user clicks the share control in a Just Read page, the extension creates a copied reader-view version of the article. It sends the original page URL, article title, author, timestamp, and copied HTML content to justread.link/newEntry to create a shareable copy.

Shared hosts - 2 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.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Just Read 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.
