Everyone uses it and it provides great functionality, but I still refuse to switch from Firefox because I never cared to follow the news about it and I remain in a bit of a knowledge deficit, thus I'm suspicious. Can someone enlighten me how much privacy I can expect if I switched to Chrome? It's Google afterall... and I don't trust them. They collect data like crazy. Also, what about the patriot act? Since Google is an American company, is all the stuff I browse (which isn't illegal, but still I'd rather not see collected in a secret service file) still as anonymous as I'd expect it from a simple web browser? I know these questions might seem dumb to some of you, but I just never felt like it was worth to keep up with all those news, rumors, flaming and shit. :S And by the way, is it possible to import all my Firefox bookmarks directly to Chrome?
There are ports and mods to chrome that apparently makes it more secure and stops it from dialing home, chromium for example, but I have no idea how good it is though. Personally I would just stick with firefox, its treated me well so far, and I dont see any reason changing it any time soon...
Well, you can always try Iron. I guess it solves privacy issues. Chrome has an option to import data from other browsers, never tried it though. Also http://duckduckgo.com/ could be worth checking.
