This post carries a lot of water for user-hating user-blaming anti-extensions. I'm sorry that your family are... having such a hard time making reasonable choices for themselves. I have literally never seen this anywhere, or heard any coworker ever report their family rampantly adding shitty extensions. I tend to see pretty clear & obvious signals about what extensions are good & ok when I go to consume. Bad extensions seem to be discovered fairly quickly & taken down. I'm trying to imagine how folks even get to the Chrome Web Store in the first place if they have no idea what they are doing. The world to me seems no where near as grimdark as you project. Alas I think it requires a paid Google Enterprise account, but your family sounds like their need external management of their browsers. That they should, like a school computer, have an administrator & a denylist or perhaps even allowlist of what extensions they can use. This post spreads so much Fear Uncertainty and Doubt. Trying to justifying ending a good thing because some creative user keeps finding a way to misuse, to not listen to sense, to not make good judgement... I find it unfortunate that such heavy fearmongering, such terror at the world is allowed to sway us so heavily. Ultimately I want 3rd party sites hosting extensions. Not Google. And I want moderation teams able to surface claims that some extensions are bad. We need more choice, more democracy, more ability to help each other. Sunlight is the best disinfectant. Simply giving in to the bed-wetting terror of, oh no, freedom & denying ourselves user-agency is intellectual suicide for the web.
