Someone is furious for your google-chrome-unstable deb package.
He went angry because it add google-chrome repository and add public
key automatically in postinst script.
he thinks it is a hurt of his system,because google can inject any
script in the deb package and change his system file.

from http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel :

...
Note: Installing Google Chrome will add the Google repository so your
system will automatically keep Chrome up to date. If you don't want
Google's repository, do "sudo touch /etc/default/google-chrome" before
installing the package.
...

it is google's method to keep chrome up to date under linux

And I for one am glad it does -- All the disclaimers were available to be read before installation so ignorance is no excuse.
