Is Speed Test safe?
Run an internet speed test from the Chrome toolbar without opening a new tab.
This extension adds an OpenSpeedTest toolbar button for checking your connection speed on top of the website you are visiting. The description says the test uses HTML5, requires no Flash or Java, and measures download and upload speed through OpenSpeedTest.com.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 2 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.

Where it sends data
