I agree about the extensions in general. I had a very strange issue that Google kept asking me for confirmation that I'm not a robot. I initially suspected my aging router had been captured, so I replaced it. But only when I removed the BTTV (Better Twitch TV) extension did it stop. I repeated the experiment, one or two days after reinstalling it I was again blocked by Google, and the block again disappeared very shortly after removing it a second time. That extension actually loads most of its code from a server, which they even write about in their README - I have no idea how this is allowed in the Chrome store. This is why I had the Youtube-proxy extension disabled, and only enabled briefly for when I needed it for a specific video. Incidentally, today in the headlines: WOT - Web Of Trust - an extension used by millions on several browsers, has sold all browsing data of all their users to 3rd parties. Worst part: According to journalists who purchased the data they were able to actually identify individual users because of the many details that were included.
