Is Website Ranking and SEO Checker by Semalt safe?

Question

Accepted Answer

Website Ranking and SEO Checker by Semalt is medium risk. When you accept the Semalt popup on a Google results page, the extension stores that choice and asks its background worker to disable matching SEO extensions. The match list comes from ext.semalt.com/api/simulator/tags, and the confirmed behavior uses browser storage plus the Chrome management permission to turn off installed extensions whose IDs appear in that list.
