Is Ezy Photo Tab & Custom Web Search safe?
Ezy Photo Tab & Custom Web Search routes new tab searches through a Yahoo affiliate URL containing hardcoded monetization parameters.
When a user types a search query on the new tab page, the extension sends it to search.yahoo.com/yhs/search with affiliate tracking parameters (param1, param2, type, hspart, hsimp) embedded in the URL. These parameters appear to be monetization tokens specific to this extension's publisher. The redirect is unconditional: the affiliate URL is always used over the plain Yahoo fallback.
