Is Robô de Comentários - Bot de Sorteios safe?

Medium risk

Robô de Comentários - Bot de Sorteios sends Instagram profile details, location, and device data to botsorteios.com.

When running on Instagram, the extension loads settings from botsorteios.com and, after login, reads Instagram account profile fields such as email, phone number, birthday, gender, username, and full name. If remote settings enable it, it also requests precise geolocation and combines it with device fingerprint details before posting the bundle back to botsorteios.com while the app is active.
