Is YouTube Music Last.fm Scrobbler safe?

Low risk

YouTube Music Last.fm Scrobbler sends your Last.fm session key and listening history over unencrypted HTTP.

While you play music on music.youtube.com, the extension reports the current track, artist, album and duration to Last.fm. These requests go to an http:// address rather than https://, together with your stored Last.fm session key, so anyone on the same network path could read or replay them.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.
