Is Web Developer safe?
Web Developer sends local page HTML and CSS to W3C validators when those validation tools are used.
When you choose the local HTML validation tool, Web Developer fetches the active page source and submits it to the W3C Nu HTML validator. When you choose the local CSS validation tool, it collects embedded styles and fetched stylesheet contents from the page, then submits that CSS to the W3C CSS validator.

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.
