Is Shot Crop - Screen Capture & Editor safe?

Low risk

Shot Crop loads replacement favicons from placehold.co when users change a site's tab color.

When you use its color-flip command on an HTTP or HTTPS page, the extension replaces the page's favicon with an image URL hosted at placehold.co. Loading that image sends a request to placehold.co, which can include the page referrer and your IP address.
