Interesting article but the issue is that it's mashing together the Chromium Browser and Google Chrome. I'm sure that Chromium itself is safe but the prvacy concers arise from the "Google bits" rather that the browser engine itself.

Right, which is why the article mentions that it is focusing on security and not privacy.

With a bit of effort, you can get a similar level of privacy to Firefox in Chrom[e/ium].
