It's because each copy of Chrome has a unique ID that they can use to directly identify you. Of course, they claim they don't.

Chrome is open-source. You can look through it and surprisingly there is no way for Google to really mine your data except for Google searches.

The only times Chrome sends data is when:

1. Update Spellcheck with your preferred language
2. Crash Reports (If you enable it)
3. Google Search (You can change search to Bing and it will stop)
4. Check for updates (Again optional)
5. Anti-phishing site list
6. 404 Error Suggestions (Can change to Bing or Yahoo)

If what you do is different from what ordinary people do, then you never know what public opinion on it will be in the future. Google will never delete their data, and in 20 years time governments might be having people lined up against a wall and shot if they had even just visited sites like http://www.littlewitch.jp or http://kodomo-h.com/..

No, he's right. Chromium is open source, Chrome is not. They're mostly the same, but there are a few differences. That is, the name, the logo and Chrome sends an encoded string to Google every now and then, while Chromium does not.

The issue is likely caused by the rendering order (i.e. Firefox rendering plug-ins after everything else), so I don't think it's possible to fix on an extension-level and you'd have to change the sourcecode of Firefox itself.
Rendering Rikaichan in a Flash applet might work, but that would probably come with its own complications.

>> No.4103742

>>4103622
I think the rikaichan display works by just adding html to the document. The problem with that is that flash objects always appear above all html, regardless of z-index, unless they have wmode=transparent set.

While the Flash plug-in does need work (9 out of 10 Firefox crashes is caused by it), in their defence, it does this with every plug-in. It happens with Java too, for instance.
