Is VPN Unblocker for Instagram safe?

Clean risk

VPN Unblocker for Instagram routes Instagram traffic through proxy servers supplied by ig.nobansocial.com.

When enabled, the extension asks ig.nobansocial.com for proxy settings, stores the returned proxy and domain list, and installs a browser PAC proxy for matching Instagram domains. Its config request includes the extension version, a persistent extension UDID from Chrome sync storage, and a derived hash.
