Interesting read.

I suppose this error only occurred for people that use Linux, installed this Linux specific Chrome extension, then change to a Mac or Windows desktop where the extension was automatically installed?

Also, is it the website owner's responsibility to solve errors like this? It would take a lot of time to fix other people's extensions. I suppose if everyone's using a particular extension, it might be worth dealing with, but then I'd hope that extension would be somewhat more stable.

That's likely too. It could be the Chrome sync thing that must've spread the extension across to Mac and Windows.
