Who's Behind RSS Feed Reader?

  • Publisher Really Simple i Stockholm AB

Public records identify the publisher, but no individual founders or a separate registered company are named — which is what holds the Publisher & Identity score back. Less public information about who operates an extension means less you can verify about their long-term accountability.
