Is YouTube URL Shortener safe?

Clean risk

Shortens the current YouTube video URL through a toolbar popup.

This extension adds a browser toolbar icon that opens a popup on YouTube video or Shorts pages. Clicking the Shorten button redirects you to yts.nu, where the YouTube URL is shortened into a youtu.be link and a temporary yts.nu link valid for 48 hours.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.

Publisher
YtMp3

Shared hosts - 1 hostname

Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.

Also called by 3 other listings, including YouTube to MP3 Converter
