Is Taobao Helper safe?

Medium risk

Taobao Helper sends popup search terms to ai.taobao.com over cleartext HTTP.

When you search from the extension popup, Taobao Helper opens a Taobao search URL containing the typed query. The URL uses HTTP rather than HTTPS and includes the extension's hardcoded affiliate identifier in the same request.
