Is JoyTab - Your News Tab safe?

Low risk

JoyTab - Your News Tab sends Chrome top-sites URLs to api.statvoo.com for favicon lookups.

When a new tab opens, the extension's new-tab page reads Chrome's topSites list and creates favicon image requests for the listed sites. Those requests include each top-sites URL in a query parameter sent to api.statvoo.com.
