I would feel much more comfortable if there were real names and more transparency behind this project, even though Copilot came to the following conclusion:

That said, I have not reviewed all files and components of this extension. Furthermore, my AI-assisted review is not a guarantee of security. It only reflects that neither I nor the AI found any obvious indicators of tracking, telemetry, or malicious behavior in the reviewed source code.
