when the Chrome .deb is installed one of the things it does is add a repository to your system -- remove that repository and it will not longer update.
A few package do that but, to my mind, it's almost worse that they do because they're altering a system file when all you want is a browser. Yes it's convenient but, to me at least, it almost seems sneaky -- I'd rather Google publish repositories as Oracle do for VirtualBox, for example. But that's just my opinion.
