In 7 days the screenshot automatically gets deleted, so you've got 7

It has to do with security for the user.

1. It adds    security since users gets warned against evil webpages.
2. It removes security since providing this feature is coupled with
   data mining, spying.

However, I referred to Chrome's security features, not to safe browsing.
If somebody has got no concerns against e.g. Googel's safe browsing,
then why not taking advantage of Chrome's sandboxing?
