Top Risks

• Uninstall URL hijack to owhit.com — classic monetization shell signal
• Install URL hijack to owhit.com — tracks installs for third-party attribution
• NewTab override combined with search permission enables search monetization
• Privacy policy is generic Google account policy, not scoped to this extension at all
• Free-webmail gmail developer with no verified business identity

Evidence

• uninstall_url_hijack crx chrome.runtime.setUninstallURL points to https://owhit.com/uninstall — third-party tracking.
• install_url_hijack crx onInstalled opens https://owhit.com/kansas-city-chiefs-wallpaper — third-party attribution.
• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab = index.html replaces every new-tab for all users.
• generic_privacy_policy store Policy URL is Google's own account policy; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true.
• free_webmail_developer store Developer email orhanyildizsd@gmail.com; no verified publisher badge; no business domain.
• js_external_hosts crx Extension references chatgpt.com, instagram.com, netflix.com, x.com, youtube.com — unrelated to wallpaper function.
• new_tab_monetization_shape manifest NewTab + search permission + owhit.com hijacks = classic ad-monetization aggregator pattern.
• csp_absent manifest content_security_policy is null; csp_present=false on MV3 extension.

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Allows reading/overriding search queries; medium risk for a NewTab extension.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab high Replaces every new-tab page with developer-controlled content; high monetization risk.
