Is Watch Movies Online safe?

Low risk

Watch Movies Online sends new-tab search box input to watchmovieonline.net as you type.

When you type in the new-tab search box, the extension sends each non-empty query, including URL-like input, to watchmovieonline.net for autosuggestions before submission. It also requests pixel HTML from the same site for the new-tab page and automatically contacts geoip-js.com for city-level geolocation on load.
