am always a bit freaked out by addons programmed in china....

backdoor access ??

How do you scan an addon to see if its doing something dodgy, like memorising which sites you looked at.

and yes I am no coder, dont know what am looking at.

from reading the comments on the addon in OP, someone states that its open-source. if so, then it should be legit...
