Is Shulex Copilot:ChatGPT E-commerce Sidebar safe?
Shulex Copilot sends selected page text, page titles, and URLs to gpttools.shulex.com when you use its chat prompt.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
1 other listing published from this account, 60k+ users between them. 1 of them carries a finding.
Shared hosts - 7 hostnames
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.
