Is Multiple Search Engines - MSE safe?
Multiple Search Engines - MSE sends selected page text to configured search-engine URLs from its context-menu searches.
When a user highlights text and clicks one of the extension's context-menu search options, the background service worker URL-encodes that selection and inserts it into the chosen search URL. Default recipients include Amazon, eBay, Wikipedia, Twitter/X, and YouTube search pages, and users can add additional search-engine URLs in the options.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
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.
