Is WhatsApp Web Side Panel - Tabbee safe?

Low risk

WhatsApp Web Side Panel - Tabbee removes WhatsApp frame protections when loading web.whatsapp.com.

The extension's declarative network request rule removes X-Frame-Options and Content-Security-Policy headers from WhatsApp main-frame and sub-frame responses. Because the rule is keyed only to WhatsApp URLs, it also affects WhatsApp frames started by other pages, not just the extension sidebar.
