Is Search image with Yandex safe?

Clean risk

Search image with Yandex sends selected image URLs or image bytes to Yandex for reverse-image lookup.

When you use the image context-menu action, the extension opens a Yandex Images search using the selected image URL for web images. For embedded or otherwise inaccessible images, it converts the image to JPEG bytes in the page and POSTs those bytes to Yandex before opening the returned search result.
