Top Risks

• Uninstall URL hijack to owhit.com — classic monetization/tracking shell pattern (+3.0 Webstore).
• Install URL hijack to owhit.com on every install — engagement tracking of users (+2.0 Webstore).
• Privacy policy is Google's generic policy (scope_extension=false, admits data collection + 3rd-party sharing) — worst-case privacy score (+10.0).
• Free-webmail developer (gmail), no verified publisher, no business domain — identity unverifiable (+1.5 Reputation).
• NewTab override with search permission and 8 external JS hosts including ad-tech shape — high monetization risk.
