Is Thumbnail Rating Bar for YouTube™ safe?
The extension sends YouTube thumbnail video IDs to Return YouTube Dislike to fetch rating data.
On YouTube and YouTube Kids pages, it reads thumbnail image URLs, extracts the embedded video ID, and sends that ID to returnyoutubedislikeapi.com/Votes. The response is cached and used to show like and dislike rating data for the video thumbnail.
