Is YouTube Livestream Chat Translator safe?
YouTube Livestream Chat Translator sends YouTube live chat message text to Google Translate for translation.
On YouTube watch and live pages, its content script observes new live chat messages, reads the visible message text, and requests a translation from translate.googleapis.com. The translated text is appended back into the chat message, so each processed chat message is sent to Google's translation endpoint with the configured source and target languages.
