The good news is that they did remove it, at least from chromium. Not OK, Google: Chromium voice extension pulled after spying concerns Old sneaky google, putting their closed source voice crawling software in open source chromium, tsk tsk tsk. I wonder if it would still be there if users hadn't complained. Makes one wonder what's going unnoticed... (To answer your original post questions) I don't know why people still use chrome, and I've been practising a personal boycott of google for a few years.
