Whilst I agree that this makes little to no difference to the average user, it is slightly different. One can sue Google/MS. Google/MS likely already have all your data already while these randoms probably don't. Google/MS have security teams while whoever made these extensions probably doesn't. A more interesting question would be, if these extension makers where as transparent as Google/MS, where sueable, and had decent security, would these extensions become okay. The answer is obviously no, but I'm not sure why.
