Do you know what would be a great way to prevent this?
Every data send by an extension should be user viewable.

They'd then claim it was for your security/privacy/protection. You know, like how Microsoft encrypts your Windows 10 usage data it sends them.
At least you could use the presence of such obfuscation as a sign there's probably something bad afoot. Presuming only a tiny number of extensions try to encode the data they send.
So, that "if you have nothing to hide..." argument, basically?
But you can bet GooBookSoft will lobby against that like their lives depended on abusing customer data. And they do depend on it.
With much regret, MiFaceGoo is rarely appropriate in the professional world.

You can start Wireshark and get that data. But it would be too complicated for an average Joe.
