Is Omegle location locator safe?

Clean risk

Omegle location locator sends Omegle peer IP addresses to api.ipregistry.co after the user clicks its popup.

When the popup is used on Omegle, the extension injects code into the active tab and watches WebRTC peer connection candidates. It extracts the peer IP address from the first server-reflexive ICE candidate it sees and sends that IP address to api.ipregistry.co for location lookup.

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.
