Is nuTab safe?
nuTab sends saved bookmark hostnames to icon.horse when it loads remote favicon images.
When you save a page, nuTab stores a bookmark icon URL built from the page's hostname using icon.horse. Opening the extension's new-tab page loads those remote icon URLs, which tells icon.horse the hostnames of your saved bookmarks.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed nuTab 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.
