Is Shopping Assistant: AliExpress, Amazon, eBay safe?
Shopping Assistant sends shopping page details to joinsafedeal.com and checks visited domains with reputation services.
On shopping product pages, the extension sends the page URL and product or document metadata to api.joinsafedeal.com/product. Its anti-scam script runs broadly and sends non-whitelisted page domains to Norton Safe Web, URLVoid, and MyWOT reputation checks. It can also use remote affiliate rules to send matching shopping URLs to Safe Deal link and ad endpoints in background tabs.

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.
