Is Easy Share safe?
Easy Share sends active-tab and top-site URLs to Google's favicon service on its new-tab page.
When its replacement new-tab page loads, Easy Share reads the browser's open HTTP(S) tabs and displays them with favicons loaded from www.google.com. It also renders top-site shortcuts with Google favicon URLs, so active-tab and top-site page URLs are sent to Google's favicon endpoint as image requests.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Easy Share 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.
