What are Chrome extensions written in? I don't use Chrome but if it's JS then it wouldn't be difficult to verify these claims.

It isn't. You can just download the crx, unzip it and go to town. You can acquire the crx by downloading it from https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx?response=red... (replace the EXTENSIONIDHERE)
