[Duplicated]Browser security

Just wondering how much of a security risk extensions are and whether that risk can be mitigated in any way? The info pop up on the extension in the extensions management page says the extension can access your data on all websites - how do we know that the extension isn't sending all this info to a third party? What is the effect of deselecting the check box "Allow on all websites"? Thanks.
(I didn't receive any answers for this question in the add-ons section, so I have reposted it here).
