Cluster of 295 Chrome extensions caught hijacking Google and Bing search results
The reporter's experience with reporting Chrome Web Store malware reflects mine: Nobody at Google cares about malware enough to stop distributing it when people report it. The "Report Abuse" button probably goes straight to an unmonitored spam folder.<p>Hint to anyone working on security at Google: It actually doesn't matter what obscure zero-days you discover and patch when you distribute malware directly that relies on supported functionality. There's no need to exploit security holes when malware is simply permitted as-is.<p>Shut the Chrome Web Store down until you're prepared to take it seriously.
