Really like it, but I do have one issue. Due to Curious Cat's shutdown I need to change that link, so I try use the mass edit tool with the find and replace setting, but always give me an error due to links. If this get fixed it'll be even better

Is vidIQ for Chrome 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.

vidIQ for Chrome does not require any sensitive permissions.
