Is Tag Validator safe to install?

Tag Validator asks for 3 browser permissions and 1 site pattern. We do not audit code and we do not judge intent; what we can show is what the listing declares and whether that has changed while we have been watching.

What the store shows

The store shows none of its badges on this listing. Most listings carry none.

Has it asked for more over time?

This is the question a permission list on its own cannot answer. An extension that shipped narrow and widened later is a different proposition from one that always asked for the same thing.

The permissions this extension requests have not changed since we started watching it.
