Is Askusdaily safe?
Askusdaily sends Chrome Top Sites hostnames to Google's favicon service when its new-tab page opens.
Askusdaily replaces the browser's new-tab page and reads Chrome's Top Sites list to show shortcuts. For each listed site, it loads an icon from Google's favicon service with the site's hostname in the request. The request includes hostnames, not full page paths, and happens when the extension's new-tab page loads.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Askusdaily contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
