Is Spector.js safe?
Spector.js injects a global variable and wraps canvas APIs on every page visited, including before the user activates it.
On every page load, Spector.js runs a content script in the MAIN world that writes a named property to the window object and replaces the native HTMLCanvasElement and OffscreenCanvas context methods with its own wrappers. This happens unconditionally on all http, https, and file URLs, regardless of whether the user has activated the extension for that tab. No user data is transmitted to external servers.

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.
