Is Share on WhatsApp™ safe?
Share on WhatsApp opens WhatsApp Web with user-selected page, link, image, or text data prefilled for sharing.
When you click the toolbar button or a context-menu share item, the extension opens web.whatsapp.com with a send query that includes the active page title and URL, a link URL, an image URL, or selected text. This happens only after a user action and sends that chosen content to WhatsApp Web.
