Is SimpleUndoClose safe?
SimpleUndoClose sends closed-tab hostnames to Google's favicon service when its popup displays them.
SimpleUndoClose keeps a local list of recently closed tabs, including each tab's URL and title, so users can reopen them. When the popup renders that list, it requests favicon images from www.google.com using each closed-tab hostname in the request URL.
