Is JokeTab: Fun jokes for you - Free money for charity safe?
JokeTab injects a content script on every site that reports visited page URLs and shopping-domain activity to events.givefreely.com.
Beyond showing jokes, JokeTab runs the GiveFreely charity-affiliate stack: a content script matching all sites sends events such as the active shopping domain and the full URL of the page you are on to events.givefreely.com, keyed to a persistent anonymous user id. It also registers webRequest listeners on all URLs to inspect every request and detect affiliate attribution, and when you click the donation popup it opens a hidden pinned tab that loads a server-generated affiliate link to claim commission for the merchant.
