Top Risks

• Uninstall URL hijack to owhit.com — classic monetization shell tracking user churn
• Install URL hijack to owhit.com — opens third-party page on every install
• NewTab override with 'search' permission and links to YouTube, Netflix, Instagram, X: ad-monetization aggregator pattern
• Privacy policy is Google's generic policy (scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true) — worst-case D rule: +10.0
• Free-webmail developer (gmail), no verified publisher, no business domain — unaccountable operator

Evidence

• uninstall_url_hijack crx chrome.runtime.setUninstallURL → https://owhit.com/uninstall; classic monetization shell fingerprint.
• install_url_hijack crx onInstalled opens https://owhit.com/hello-kitty-happy-easter-live-wallpaper/ — third-party page opened on install.
• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab=index.html replaces every new tab; search permission also declared.
• privacy_policy_generic store Policy URL is Google's own privacy page; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true → +10 privacy.
• js_external_hosts crx 8 external hosts including owhit.com, chat.openai.com, Netflix, YouTube, Instagram, X — monetization aggregator pattern.
• free_webmail_dev store Developer email dermanseven32@gmail.com; no verified publisher, no business domain, developer_name='backgrounds'.
• new_tab_monetization_shape manifest NewTab + search override + external links to major platforms + owhit.com = ad-monetization aggregator shell.
• csp_absent_mv3 manifest content_security_policy is null; MV3 default applies but no explicit CSP declared.

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Allows reading/modifying search provider; paired with newtab override raises monetization concern.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab high Replaces every new tab with extension page; primary vector for ad-monetization and search hijacking.
