No one that uses Firefox is gonna use chrome. Dead in the water. Waste of time for google.

This is my concern.

I doubt it's remotely accurate, but as an honest question: Would anyone truly be shocked if it turned out that Google and the U.S. Government did cooperate in some manner on intelligence gathering?

It happened with the big phone companies (they circumvented FISA warrants and allowed warrantless culling of phone data).

Or is that way too tinfoil-ish ish?

because google is useful? its also well designed....

doesn't coincide with U.S. Gov't

You can get a more secure version of chrome which has been compiled from the os code to avoid the google issues:

Please mark me down as being "no one".

Chrome handles most of my browsing tasks, because it is much faster than Firefox on my machine.

It's flat lined at less than 1% market share.

I'm using iron, the recompiled chrome as my backup browser instead of ie.

I still prefer firefox for normal browsing because of the advert free and undistorted browsing but iron/chrome is very fast to load and use.

Nonetheless, Chrome still runs faster on my machine than Firefox.
