Is MapIt! safe?

Clean risk

Open highlighted addresses in a map service from the right-click menu.

This extension adds a context menu option for selected address text. When you choose “MapIt!”, Chrome opens a new tab showing the location in your preferred mapping service, with Google Maps as the default and options including Mapquest, Zillow, and Apple Maps on macOS.

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.
