"Picture-in-Picture Extension (by Google) has disclosed the following information regarding the collection and usage of your data.

network monitoring, clicks, mouse position, scroll, or keystroke logging"

This should be removed or the extension cannot be trusted or used securely.

There is absolutely no reason a "PiP" app needs 'keystoke logging' or anything else mentioned above.
