Is Gmail Fetcher safe?

Question

Accepted Answer

Gmail Fetcher is medium risk. Each time the browser starts, Gmail POP Sync reads the Gmail address stored in its sync storage and POSTs it in plaintext to beta.geotrack.email. On first install it also fires a tracking GET request with the address in the URL. On uninstall, Chrome opens a geotrack.email URL that includes the address as a query parameter. Dynamic analysis confirmed a real Gmail address appearing in plaintext across multiple requests.
