Is Readwise Exporter safe?
Readwise Exporter reads Notion session cookies and Roam Research auth tokens and transmits them to readwise.io.
When you connect Notion or Roam Research through the extension, it reads your Notion token_v2 session cookie and your Roam Research Firebase authentication tokens from IndexedDB. These credentials are then sent to readwise.io endpoints (/api/notion_login/ and /api/roam_login/) to authenticate your export session. The data transfer is triggered by user-initiated export actions on readwise.io pages.

Same store account
3 other listings published from this account, 202k+ users between them, none of them carrying a finding.
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.
