Totally with you. With my grandparents and even my smart, successful sister they simply live in a different world then we do. They are being tricked (or are too lazy to care or notice) and these moves do help them. We see more and more technology companies doing things to help these users. (Like Apple with the new MBP by girlfriend says it's her favorite computer she has ever owned all of 15 seconds after turning it on).
But here if you have developer mode on they should never be allowed to do this. It's one thing to do it to a normal user (though if they really cared they would check to see if the extension was a normal non-spam extensions like this) but when a user as clicked that they are capable of understanding what extensions they have on then Google is in the wrong.
Sadly we are on HN are not the majority user of the products we love to discuss.
