Is WordPress Plugin & Theme Detector safe?
WordPress Plugin & Theme Detector sends the active WordPress site's hostname to ip-api.com over HTTP.
When you open the popup on a detected WordPress site, the extension derives the site's hostname from the active tab URL. It sends that hostname to ip-api.com over cleartext HTTP as part of its server-information lookup.
