Is VT4Browsers + Google TI safe?
VT4Browsers + Google TI sends browsing host/IP telemetry to VirusTotal and includes API keys in Google error reports.
By default, the extension records public IP resolutions from non-VirusTotal web requests and sends batches of hostnames and IP addresses to VirusTotal. Its error-reporting path also places the user-supplied VT/GTI API key in the Cloud Error Reporting context, so extension error reports sent to Google include that key.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 4 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.
