Is Live Screen Recorder safe?
Live Screen Recorder sends a persistent anonymous usage identifier to Google Analytics every hour.
Each time the extension runs, it generates a UUID that is stored locally and used as a stable client identifier. Once per hour, this identifier is transmitted to Google Analytics via a POST request using a hardcoded measurement ID and API secret. The analytics call includes a session ID and records that the extension is running, allowing the developer to track active installs over time.
