This point of view assumes that the injected code is harmless and never causes compatibility issues when viewing a website. The moment a JavaScript conflict occurs and Apple loses a sale or the ability to buy a product online is hindered, I think that there will be parties who certainly feel they are being "harmed" by this process of manipulating the content being delivered to end users.

Yes, this technique could potentially be misused. You can say the same thing about any technology.
