Chrome isn't a web browser. It's a tentacle of Google that takes over your computer, spies on you, and controls everything you see.

Moreover, it controls anything it thinks you need.

@seanl Just this morning I was looking at Wireshark and noticed Chrome talking to my Vizio TV on a weird port. The TV has a Chromecast built in. Just putting them on the same network caused them to hook up with no further interaction. Not my expected behavior from a web browser.

@seanl No kidding. A Chromebook is a unified shortcut for the purpose.
