Is Paywall remover 2025 safe?

Clean risk

Paywall remover 2025 sends the user's current page URL to removepaywalls.com when the toolbar button is clicked.

When the user clicks the extension's browser action button, the extension constructs a redirect URL by appending the active tab's full URL to https://removepaywalls.com/ and navigates the tab there. This forwards the user's current page URL to removepaywalls.com as part of the request path. The redirect only occurs on explicit user action; no background data collection takes place.
