Is Video Time Manager safe?

Clean risk

YouTube Time Manager sends the current YouTube page URL to Google Analytics with a persistent extension client ID.

When its YouTube-scoped dashboard script records page-view or click events, the background worker posts JSON to Google Analytics. The payload includes the current page URL as page_url and a persistent client ID generated by the extension.
