Is Chrome Cloudflare Helper safe?
Chrome Cloudflare Helper inserts a GitHub-hosted badge image on Cloudflare pages, sending image-request metadata to GitHub.
When a visited page is served by Cloudflare and is HTML, Chrome Cloudflare Helper adds a badge image loaded from github.com. That request can include the page URL as the Referer along with the browser's IP address, so GitHub receives metadata for those Cloudflare page visits.
