The package downloads prebuilt Brother RPMs from an official Brother download domain for self-hosted hardware support, which is normal for proprietary driver packages; the non-whitelisted host is the vendor's own infrastructure, and the binaries are verified via b2sums, making this a standard, low-risk AUR package.
