Is Bitly URL Shortner Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Bitly URL Shortner does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious.
