I read a report that declared that half of Chrome's activity is reporting to Google, Inc. of the activity the user is doing-- what sites he is visiting, among other statistics. It is reminiscent of Orwell's "Big Brother" from 1984. Some people express concern about organizations like this, and I am one of them. Apparently Sonuna is as well.

Yes. One private corporation gathering anonymous usage statistics in an open-source browser which is easily examinable by a third party is definitely comparable to 1984. Totally. No doubt about it.
Also no, I don't care in the slightest because a) anonymous, b) opt-outable, c) open-source and d) I use Firefox because of extensions anyway.
Crone was me making a terrible, presumably not entertaining pun on the typo of 'Chrome' as 'Chrone' in the title. Minus an h.

Also, I got the evil stepmother joke.
So you lost your trust,
And you never should have.
No, you never should have.
But don't break your back
If you ever see this,
But don't answer that.

I'll be doing my best
I'll see you soon.

You speak of Firefox, I presume? That takes like 30 seconds to start up on this computer, about as much as IE. Safari is okay, but the design is cliché and not good enough features.J-man wrote:World's best?

Google Chrome and Safari use the same backend, Webkit. Safari is quite possibly the best browser out there for my purposes at least, firefox is bloated and feels like some kind of beast of a application...I use it for some random stuff like CSS stuff...but beyond that I use safari for everything. Google Chrome's design is just ugly. I like uniformity of design, and the mac version of Chrome completely throws that off, Chrome is basically Safari but with less awesome because apple integrates it so well with OS X that it's hard not to use it if you're on a mac.American Eagle wrote:You speak of Firefox, I presume?

Haven't ever tried Google Chrome. Right now I use a combination of Firefox and Safari.
Also, if anyone on a mac wants to use Chrome, you have to download the developer release.
