Is YouTube Keyboard Shortcuts Plus safe?
YouTube Keyboard Shortcuts Plus sends selected YouTube page text to Google or Weblio when lookup hotkeys are used.
On YouTube pages, the extension registers keyboard shortcuts that read the text currently selected on the page. Pressing its lookup hotkeys opens a Google search for the selected text plus "meaning" or a Weblio dictionary page for the selected text, which sends that selection in the destination URL.
