Расширение переведено на английский не до конца. Не понятно зачем ему права "Чтение истории просмотров", не понятно зачем ему доступ к Google для синхронизации если в браузере на это есть встроенный API chrome.storage на который никаких особых разрешений не нужно. В общем-то подозрительное это расширение в плане конфиденциальности и безопасности

Extension safety

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.

2FA Authenticator requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
