While there is nothing dangerous about this, it can clearly have an adverse impasct on your Web browsing experience.
The FreshSkill redirects could result in seeing additional ads. Furthermore, the search services that FreshSkill promotes are likely to serve low-quality results, sponsored content and, of course, more ads. Needless to say, you should not allow such apps to run on your device, and manipulate your browser configuration.
