i just want to tell you guys that this browser is a privacy threat to the users and some sysadmins call this thing as "self-inflicted keylogger". one of my proxy servers died early morning (around 1AM +8GMT) because of the huge outgoing traffic to this site:
http://cr-tools.clients.google.com while nobody's in the office except for those support people.
another thing is that using this browser, google is monitoring your surfing habits
oh bad, need to remove this browser out of my box at home.
i thought it's worth a try but seems to be a nasty thing just for the sake of business.
by the way, all the info that i shared came from my server log reviews, research, investigation and some security consultations with our security team and i'm convinced that this is not a better browser. i still love my
firefox.
Actual log from one of my servers:
