Is Popup View for Google™ Translate safe?
The extension optionally sends the current page or link URL to Microsoft Translator for Bing translation.
When the Bing page-translation option is enabled, choosing the Bing translation context-menu item opens Microsoft Translator with the current page or selected link URL in its query string. This applies on any HTTP or HTTPS site, but only after the user enables the option and uses that context-menu action.
