Is MacBed Update Notifier safe?
MacBed Update Notifier periodically requests MacBed's RSS feed from the background.
When installed and then once an hour, its background worker requests https://www.macbed.com/feed/ to check for updates. That request sends normal network metadata, including the user's IP address, to www.macbed.com.
AI-generated. Findings may contain errors. Those marked Verified have been manually reviewed.
