What are the safety issues of using the google inspect console?

I have used it before. Are there any drawbacks?

Session ID is basically a temporary key to your account ONLY intended for your own computer. It's changed if you log out and log in. Now, if someone got that key he can login to your account until the ID changes. Then he'll be kicked out.

Little Addition: Thanks to Session IDs you don't have to sign into your account every time you visit the site ;)

What I mean is: If I do commands in the chrome inspect console, is it safe?

Yup. On certain sites it might be possible to steal your session ID though, you should just read through the code one time. It's completely safe otherwise. It only modifys your local site.
