Found a teardown of this same exact one from DiodesGoneWild.
Credits: DiodeGoneWild"Surge protector" lie:Sounds to me very dangerous in that:
1. Exposed pins at the back are indeed live and present an electric shock hazard if touched behind.
2. If other pins are accidentally raised by pressing the buttons with it plugged in and they touch or lay against something conductive now isn't that a fire risk?
3. You can accidentally insert the British, Italian and European plug the wrong way where it becomes live on the pin that stick out and is an electric shock hazard.
4.
No surge protection. The LED just has two resistors in series with it. So that is
an absolute lie on the packaging and socket.
5. The shutters don't lock with an earth shutter so a child can poke things in there but I'd imagine they are more likely to get electric shocks elsewhere first like touching the live pins behind it.
Universal Travel Shock-dapter (Dangerous Adapter)

The problem is that you can eject more plugs at the same time. When plugged in, the exposed pins of the other plugs are live. It also defeats ground / earth. Ground is not being connected at all, but you can plug into it appliances that need to be grounded. You can also plug

1:48 as you can see there is no ground there is just European path without ground u.s. or Australian plug without any ground and British plug is just a plastic ground plane because the British socket actually requires the pain to open the shutters of those two but it was just made of plastic it doesn't connect anything
2:21 like this one but that's absolutely nothing to prevent you from cutting appliances which has to be grounded like this Europe Iran you can easily plug it in is Italian one with the ground pin in the center you can plug it in and it's connected to nothing and the British one
2:45 you can easily plug it in and the ground is always being defeated you can also very easily plug it in the wrong way and this pin is becoming live
3:09 with this one at 12 and you can even plug the ground pin of the British plug into live and the entire metal cabinet of the appliance is now live and this is
3:31 stop here so let's stay in Europe just plug it in and what if you accidentally engage those British pains now yes their eyes so you just got an electric shock
3:34 plug it in and what if you accidentally engage those British pains now yes their eyes so you just got an electric shock in Europe and if you rock enough to be still alive you can fly to America and plug it in and again you exist engage those pains and again they arise so you'll have another electric shock and
4:11 of those pins are live now the European ones are live and the American ones are are live
4:17 and it claims to have safety shutters but they don't work at all you can stick up to anything into it even the ground pin or the British plug
5:48 there is an LED and this is 2 two resistors in series both 74 kilo ohm each in series and that's it
6:29 there is the shutter which is completely useless
6:54 there is of course no ground connection it's just empty plastic hole
6:58 it says surge protector but I already didn't find any need and this is how the
