In a similar vein, I had a negative experience with a chrome add-on regarding injected ads. One day out of nowhere I started seeing obvious non Google ads in my Google searches. Took me forever to realize some QR generator I downloaded years ago was injected them after the page load. Tried looking up the add-on within the chrome marketplace and the plugin was no longer listed. Turns out the developers executed a common path of creating a legit plugin then after a large userbase has been established, push an update containing ad injecting code and de-list themselves from the marketplace. Very shady.
