Is YouTube Video Downloader - For Context Menu safe?
YouTube Video Downloader - For Context Menu rewrites matching page links through affiliate URLs fetched over HTTP.
The extension runs a content script on all HTTP and HTTPS pages and asks its background page to fetch link-rewrite rules from www.downloadytb.com over cleartext HTTP. When a page link matches those rules, it intercepts the click and navigates through a configured affiliate URL with the original destination encoded in the redirect.
