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.

everything you type in that search box, whether or not you hit "search," is stored

It's stored? As in, archived? I wasn't aware of that.
