Is Tube Archivist Companion safe?
Tube Archivist Companion sends its API token and optional YouTube cookie export to user-configured HTTP servers.
When a user connects with an http:// Tube Archivist URL, the extension stores that URL with the API key and uses it for API requests. Clicking Copy Now or enabling continuous sync reads YouTube cookies and uploads the exported cookie file to the same user-configured Tube Archivist server over HTTP.

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.
