that is a fairly uncharitable interpretation of what happened. At worst Google tried to be helpful by offering a free translation service and the user clicked "yes, translate all pages in language X to Y". Chrome does not automatically translate pages out of the box. it asks
If the user in question did not give specific permission for Google to steal their ProtonMail email/s and send them back to Google servers, then that should be a crime. It should be a felony, just as it would be if a Google employee opened or obtained my physical mail without permission, scanned it in some manner, and took it back to their offices.
