Is Kimchi Reader safe?
Kimchi Reader sends parsed page and subtitle text to its API for Korean lemmatization.
When its parser runs on supported video sites or a user-selected active tab, Kimchi Reader extracts page and subtitle text and posts it to api.kimchi-reader.app for lemmatization. Logged-in dictionary activity also records coarse source and media context and can upload those records to the same API.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
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.
