    Article talks about how Chrome will be happening almost immediately and I’m like… why? Why would you switch to Chrome when you know it’s going to reduce your ability to keep things private. Firefox will be a different story hopefully, but even then it will be interesting to see if it can pass the fingerprint test finally on an iPhone. (Currently nothing can.)

      People use chrome because they’re used to chrome (and because it has the best website compatibility thanks to its near monopoly). And most people sadly don’t care about their privacy.

      I personally try to use as little Google products as I can and am happy using a mixture of Safari and Firefox (depending on the platform)
