Is YouShare for YouTube™ safe?
YouShare for YouTube passively sends YouTube homepage recommendation details to youshare.media unless sharing is private.
On the YouTube homepage, the extension collects metadata for recommended videos, including video URLs, titles, durations, channel details, view counts, dates, and thumbnails. It batches those items and posts them with the user's bearer token to https://youshare.media/sync/feed unless the sharing privacy setting is private.
