Is YouTube Downloader safe?
YouTube Downloader Plus removes frame-blocking and content-security headers from every page response.
The extension registers a global web request listener that applies to both top-level pages and embedded frames on all websites. For each matching response, it removes X-Frame-Options and Content-Security-Policy headers before the browser receives them, which can allow pages to be framed or run with fewer site-defined restrictions.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
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.
