Is VK Saver safe?
VK Saver automatically sends a page-load beacon from VK and aferon.com pages to aferon.com/stat.
Its content script runs on vk.com and aferon.com pages and calls https://aferon.com/stat/ during initialization without a user action. The request includes a static text parameter, while the receiving server can observe the page request context and the user's IP address.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed VK Saver 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.
