Is Readability based Reader View safe?
Readability based Reader View can send article text to Google or IBM when you choose their remote text-to-speech voices.
When you use the reader's text-to-speech feature with a Translate voice, the article text is placed in a request to Google Translate's TTS endpoint. When you choose a Watson voice, the article text is wrapped as speech markup and posted to IBM's demo TTS service before audio playback.
