Is MonkeyTab safe?
MonkeyTab sends displayed Chrome topSites URLs to Google's favicon service on its new-tab page.
When its replacement new-tab page opens, MonkeyTab reads Chrome's topSites list and builds favicon image URLs for up to eight displayed sites. Those image requests go to Google's favicon endpoint with each top-site URL included in the domain_url query parameter.

Where it sends data
