Is YouTube Subtitle Dubbing and Web Page Reader safe?

Clean risk

YouTube Subtitle Dubbing and Web Page Reader sends selected article text to ReadIt Cloud for text-to-speech playback.

When users press play, the extension extracts readable text from the current HTTP or HTTPS page and passes text chunks to its background script. The background script gzips a JSON request containing the text, voice settings, extension ID, and account authorization, then posts it to ReadIt Cloud's text-to-speech endpoint.
