I doubt it's a local proxy since it's a Chrome/FF extension. Or maybe I've not kept up with the state of Chrome/FF extension development and it is completely possible to write a proxy that runs within the browser.

Extensions don't proxy anything. They do, however, have access to everything you do (type, click, etc) and everything you can see. (i.e. close enough)
