Is Search to Play the Song safe?
Search to Play the Song sends NetEase searches and playback lookups over cleartext HTTP.
When you search or play music through the NetEase source, the extension posts the search text and selected song details to music.163.com over HTTP rather than HTTPS. It also adds a generated Cookie header and Referer to those NetEase requests, so the request path, form data, and extension-supplied headers travel in cleartext.
