Is SmoothScroll safe?

Low risk

SmoothScroll lets child frames send messages that scroll the top page.

Its content script listens for SmoothScroll messages in top-level pages and treats them like wheel input. If a page embeds a child frame, that frame can send the message and move the parent page's scroll position without a real user scroll; the code path does not show page data being read or sent.

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.
