Is LiveTL - Live Translations for Streams safe?
LiveTL - Live Translations for Streams sends optional YouTube live-chat translation text to kentonishi.com.
When HyperChat translation is enabled on Firefox, LiveTL injects a translation host into YouTube live-chat pages and passes chat message text plus the selected target language to kentonishi.com/iframe-translator. The remote translator returns the translated text to the extension so the chat can display it.
