Is Malwarebytes Browser Guard Beta safe?

Clean risk

Shared hosts - 12 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.
