Ask HN: Google employees, why is G+ more important than your users?

I've installed SRWare Iron [0] as a sandbox browser for GMail, Facebook, Twitter et al. It is a privacy conscious fork of Chromium (no data sent to Google except when you visit Google sites). It lags a bit behind the official release, but it's good enough for that purpose.

I use Firefox for the rest of my browsing, signed out of these services, and Chrome for webdev.

I trust Iron less than I trust Google: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt.comp.freeware/MK53RMjk4n...

I don't see anything that would make me not trust SRWare in that thread.

The main problem I have with it is that it lags behind Chrome (currently two versions).

Since I only browse safe sites, I'm not too worried (almost only Gmail, I barely use the other two).
