I have not and will not install Chrome because of its data policy. In that respect Microsoft are right. It might be the best browser but the downside is simply not worth it for me.

What data policy? Have you actually read any of the material from Google which dispel many of the common myths about Chrome and data mining?

It is their data policy re searches. Even if they have a much better policy now they have tarnished their reputation with me. They should have not have pushed the limits to the extent that they have.
