Is User-Agent Switcher and Manager safe?
User-Agent Switcher and Manager fetches its agent list from cdn.jsdelivr.net at an unpinned @latest reference with no integrity check.
The extension lets users spoof the User-Agent header on outgoing requests. When the popup opens, it fetches the list of available user-agent strings from cdn.jsdelivr.net pointing at the @latest tag of the author's GitHub repository, with no subresource integrity check. This means any update to that repository is automatically picked up by the extension without a version bump or user consent.

Shared hosts - 2 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.
