A comment on Why I contribute to Chromium.

Something about giving away all of my browsing information to Google in total puts a bad taste in my mouth.

I'd rather stick with Firefox and use DuckDuckGo when I want to run an unfiltered(ish) search.

Just a friendly reminder that HN considers comments that don't contribute to the article "off-topic" and you are likely to be downvoted as such. If you want to turn around your negative karma, please try and follow the community guidelines. Additionally this week there is a political embargo, so comments like this are even more likely to be penalised.

They're referring to this [0] post, which was kinda controversial.

How are you giving away all your browsing information to Google?

I am not aware of this; could you explain?
