#13First IE, now Chrome. What gets into these companies heads once they get biggest market share? And the people working for these companies. How do you sleep at night bro?

#14Annoying, but are the kind of people still using Chrome really that discerning about what's going on behind the scenes on their device?

#16The local model powers the features nobody uses. The cloud model powers the feature everyone sees. You pay 4GB for the illusion of privacy.
>You pay 4GB for the illusion of privacy.
How's this conspiracy supposed to work? A technical audience who cares about privacy aren't going to be placated by 4GB sitting on their disk. They're going to want some sort of analysis (like http interception), or probably not use chrome in the first place. A non-technical audience isn't going to make the association between 4GB of disk usage and the privacy implications.

#18I recently switched to Safari, I'm actually very impressed by how well it works.

#19I am scared to even open Chrome these days. The only app that randomly chunks 70% of CPU availability with one tab.
