Is TwitterScan Extension safe?

Clean risk

TwitterScan Extension sends the current X profile URL to api.twitterscan.com for follower lookup.

When you view an X profile while logged in to TwitterScan, the extension calls TwitterScan's follower lookup API. The request includes the current profile URL in the body and uses the stored TwitterScan session token as an Access-Token header.
