This is a good story, but I'm surprised Google allowed this extension to exist, especially if it's true that it was widely used by spammers.

All the extension does is provide a conduit between the Gmail UI and the Gmail API, really. Google's systems for detecting spammers are pretty good, so they're more likely to shut down a spamming account rather than my extension.
