Isn't it disingenuous to say you have 100M users? That's like Apple saying they have 25 billion iPhone (SDK) users because people have downloaded that many apps. (Note: world population still ~7 billion.)



Extremely disingenuous. In fact it's a lot closer to flat out lying. The extension creators have 100 million users, not them.

They have 7,000 users (developers). They're basically taking credit for all of the work done on all of the extensions and claiming all of the users accordingly


The worst part is, they could have said that they had 7k developers who in turn have 100m users, and we'd still be impressed. Instead they just smeared egg all over their own faces.
