A brilliant concept, with brilliant results. Only problem is, sometimes, the logos in the websites change (which is obviously the intention), but the thumbnails on the tabs and bookmarks bar do not change (or even vice-versa). I hope that these issues are quickly fixed, since I find this addon to be truly underrated, as someone who has got used to, but still doesn't really like the look of the September 2020 icons.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Classic Google Icons requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Classic Google Icons has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
