Is [Unofficial] Saladict - Pop-up Dictionary safe?
[Unofficial] Saladict - Pop-up Dictionary sends selected text to Baidu translation and speech endpoints over HTTP.
When the Baidu dictionary is enabled, the extension builds lookup requests from user-selected text and sends that text to Baidu translation services over unencrypted HTTP. Its text-to-speech feature also places the selected text in requests to Baidu's speech endpoint, and the shipped bundle includes reusable Baidu API credentials used for those requests.

ImAyx - no other listings under this identity, 14 shared hostnames
What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 14 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 非官方-沙拉查词-聚合词典划词翻译 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.
