Is NotebookLM Extension (Gemini Notebook) - ExtendLM safe?
NotebookLM Extension - ExtendLM sends a persistent anonymous UUID to Google Analytics on every extension interaction.
The extension enhances Google NotebookLM by adding features such as folder management, audio recording, and source organization, operating exclusively on notebooklm.google.com. On first launch it generates a random UUID and stores it in local storage, then sends this identifier alongside event names and parameters to Google Analytics each time the user opens the popup, views a page, or clicks a button. No browsing history or notebook content is included in these analytics payloads.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

Shared hosts - 11 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.
