Yes, and no.  I read an interview with a security 
expert and he said Chrome is nothing but a 
collection portal for Google.  You shouldn't have 
to have an account, or have to log into it to use 
a browser -- but that is the world we live in. I 
use Chrome, and accept it, but you should know 
what is going on.  This is the price we pay for 
all the free stuff on the web.  It has to be paid for somehow.
