Is SoundCloud Downloader safe?
SoundCloud Downloader intercepts SoundCloud API credentials from the browser to authenticate its own track-download requests.
The extension injects a content script and background listener scoped exclusively to soundcloud.com. It captures the OAuth token and client_id from outgoing SoundCloud API requests and stores them locally in chrome.storage.local, then re-injects them into its own API calls to download tracks. No captured credentials are transmitted to any external server — they remain on the user's device and are used solely to interact with the SoundCloud API on the user's behalf.
