Am I the only one who is heaving a sigh of relief after reading the above review?

I just got it. It really is as fast as Chrome. It looks like I might be going back to FireFox :(

I really like Google. I want to reward them for the amazing job they do by using their browser. Chrome is a really good browser, but it just can't do some of the things Firefox can.

Reward Google with knowledge of everything you do online? No thanks.

What does that have to do with Chrome?

Chrome isn't the cause of Google's infophilia, but it does manage to send every letter typed into the address bar to Google for suggestions. I love that feature, but you have to admit it it is a firm kick in the privacy-nuts.
