Is StreamFab Netflix Downloader safe?
StreamFab Netflix Downloader sends the active tab's full URL, account email and machine ID to DVDFab with its analytics events.
The extension posts analytics events to DVDFab's servers on startup, install, downloads and page interactions. Each event includes the URL and query string of the active tab on any site, not only Netflix, along with the signed-in account email, device ID and machine ID. A daily log archive is also uploaded on startup.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
4 other listings published from this account, 1k+ users between them. 1 of them carries a finding.
Shared hosts - 9 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
Destinations our analysis observed StreamFab Netflix Downloader contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
