Is Source Code Viewer safe?

Clean risk

Source Code Viewer stores the active tab's DOM and page source in extension-local storage when you open it.

When you open Source Code Viewer for the active tab, it reads the page's HTML, stylesheet and script elements, URL, and title. It saves that collected page source data in Chrome extension-local storage so its viewer page can display it.
