Is Glassy - New Tab safe?
Glassy - New Tab sends top-site hostnames to Google's favicon service after you grant topSites access.
When the optional topSites permission is granted, the new-tab page reads up to eight top sites from Chrome and builds image URLs at www.google.com/s2/favicons with each site's hostname in the domain parameter. Loading those favicon images sends the hostnames to Google so icons can be displayed.
