Is SvcHost Downloader safe?
SvcHost Downloader stores your SvcHost session token and user profile for authenticated downloader API requests.
When you are signed in on downloader.svchost.id, the extension reads the site's localStorage token and user object and saves them in Chrome extension storage. Its popup then sends the token as a Bearer authorization header to downloader.svchost.id/api for account info, recent downloads, and download submissions.
