How does using google chrome share data??? im worried about my privacy now. Please someone fill me in.
I'm a Chrome user myself. It tracks usage data (I think you can turn that off...) and crash data so it can help improve future versions, it (apparently) doesn't collate or send any personal information so information that is sent is done so anonymously.

It isn't even a blip on my radar though I'm sure that google searches are biased based on my browsing habits and whoever shells out the most $$'s to advertise with Google.
