Is Spotless: Spotify Ad Muter safe?
Spotless: Spotify Ad Muter injects hidden browsebetter.io iframes into Spotify pages on first run and after use.
When Spotify loads, the extension can create a nearly invisible iframe pointing to s1.browsebetter.io on first run. After seven days and more than 12 removed ads, it can add another iframe that loads remote browsebetter.io content over Spotify.

Same store account
2 other listings published from this account, 401k+ users between them. 1 of them carries a finding.
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.
