Yep, given Google's track record for respecting privacy and their CEO's public statement: "If you have something that you don't want anyone to know, maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place" I wouldn't use Chrome if it was the last browser on Earth. -- John Corliss BS206. Because of all the Googlespam, I block all posts sent through Google Groups. I also block as many posts from anonymous remailers (like x-privat.org for eg.) as possible due to forgeries posted through them. No ad, CD, commercial, cripple, demo, nag, share, spy, time-limited, trial or web wares OR warez for me, please. Adobe Flash sucks, DivX rules.

It kinda starts it's own private session. -- HK |
