Is YouTube Ads Silencer safe?

Low risk

YouTube Ads Silencer loads Google Fonts from remote Google endpoints when its popup opens.

When you open the extension popup, it connects to Google Fonts endpoints to load Noto Sans and Roboto Condensed. Those requests can send basic network metadata such as your IP address and request headers to Google, but the confirmed behavior is limited to the popup UI.
