Here's a talk from 33C3: https://media.ccc.de/v/33c3-8034-build_your_own_nsa

The data under "web pages visited and time stamp of the visit" is your clickstream data (you can check which data the extension sends using the network tab in the extension developer tools, though some extensions go to great lenghts to obfuscate it).

Danke schön. Schade, aber mein Deutsch ist nicht so gut.

Most of the users live in Privacy Nightmare and accept it. They also run closed source OS and applications. The truth is privacy has a cost - monetary (Apple ecosystem) or time/experience (Linux etc).

Apple can hire maintainers, Linux users can become maintainers. Those who live in free as beer land has free as beer support.
