Is Wallpapers Clan - Dynamic New Tab Wallpapers safe?
Wallpapers Clan sends top-site hostnames to Google's favicon service when building new-tab shortcuts.
On a new tab with no saved shortcuts, the extension reads Chrome's top sites and creates favicon image requests for up to eight hostnames. Those requests go to Google's favicon endpoint with the visited site hostname in the domain query parameter.
