Is iTop VPN safe?
iTop VPN checks your public IP through cleartext IP-location services when its popup opens.
When you open the popup, the extension calls public IP lookup endpoints over HTTP first, then falls back to iTop's HTTPS IP checker. The returned IP address and location fields are saved in local browser storage and shown in the popup.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed iTop VPN contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
