Is Earth View 360° safe?
Earth View 360° looks up your city from your IP and sends it to a weather API and its own site.
On each new tab the extension asks MaxMind's geoip service for your city and state, stores them locally, and sends the city to OpenWeatherMap for the weather widget. On first use it also fetches an HTML snippet from earthview360.org and renders it in the new tab page, so remote images or frames can load.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Earth View 360° 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.
