Is Stylish safe to use again?

About this question

Stylish is/was a very popularly known extension for the Chrome and Firefox web browsers, which let users add custom styles to certain websites. I had been using it myself until a fellow told me it was apparently spyware; new owners decided to engage in data-slurping activities, which caused Google and Mozilla to pull the plugin from their stores.


However, since it's back in the store, does that mean they've removed the malicious part of the code and it's safe to use again? I'm not really opposed to general data statistics gathering, I just don't like being uniquely identifiable.

I have read their privacy policy which states:


We do not want to know your identity or any other personal information and we do not automatically collect data to try and figure out who you are

but stating is one thing, actually doing it is another. So what do think, is stylish safe?
