Google To Warn of Chrome Extensions From New or Untrusted Developers

From a report: The new extension scanning feature will be part of a Google security feature called Enhanced Safe Browsing, which Google added to Chrome in May last year. Google says trusted developers are those who adhere to the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies. 'For new developers, it will take at least a few months of respecting these conditions to become trusted,' the browser maker said in a blog post today.
