Is Ecosia with Google safe?
Ecosia with Google sends your Ecosia search query to Google when you click its injected Google button.
On Ecosia search pages, the extension adds a Google button to the page. When you click that button, it opens Google Search with the same query string from the current Ecosia URL; it does not send the query before that click.
