That's my assumption (I know you didn't ask me directly).

Maybe they are spyware, maybe they are not. I think there are legitimate
reasons for a program to be "chatty". It depends on the user's
expectations, what data is sent, and who it is sent to. We should keep
looking into issues #1 and #3.
Also, I think the Chromium package is being held to a very high standard
compared to other packages, which is good, since web browsers are so
important now.
