It's the "awakened trade" for poe2, as the author of awakened trade (snosme) didn't want the awakened trade name to be used for poe2. It's basically a price checking overlay.

Personally i've used alecaframe on warframe for a while now which is a overwolf app and haven't been hacked. Idk if i should remove it or not.

So where does OP get the info from that hacks are happening because of these overlays?

Nowhere. Any connection to any of the trade overlays hasn't been proven. That being said, the Overwolf overlay hasn't been recommended by many for a while due to all the alleged data it collects.

Oh no this is not good. I'm wondering now, is the open source on github, maps filter. That you download and you can tweak whatever you want in that file. Is that safe or is there data collection stuff happening in that too?

Sidekick is safer than these two, I guess.

Can confirm. I had some random players try to party up with me out of nowhere after I used Overwolf. Uninstalled it immediately. Sidekick is more reliable, and far less sketchy.

Filters are only text files. Overlays are a different matter.

Exiled Exchange should be fine, are you sure you got it from the official source? It's just a fork of Awakened PoE Trade.

Sidekick is good.

Overwolf is spyware garbage.

Does the OP have any evidence or any beginning of evidence of what he writes? I don't think so.
Personally, I have never had any problem with these two tools.
