Is RiteTag safe?
RiteTag is medium risk. When you ask RiteTag for hashtag suggestions, the extension includes the current page domain in the request to RiteKit's API. That means the service receives which site you were on when the suggestion request was made.…

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