Is ProBlocker - Adblock for YouTube & Web safe?
ProBlocker sends YouTube watchtime request details to theproblocker.com when a remote beta mode is enabled.
When its remote beta mode is enabled on YouTube, ProBlocker captures watchtime request parameters along with headers and referrer details and posts them to theproblocker.com APIs. It also exposes the extension's persistent install token to scripts running on YouTube pages via a window message.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 4 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.
