And then you’ll be tracked by Google. Guess you didn’t read the article headline.

I did read the article and do understand the tracking habits of Google. Many companies are getting in the bad habit of tracking users these days, all in the name of marketing to users in most cases.

The article is referring to ChromeOS, which is an operating system and I was referring to Google Chrome, the stable version for Ubuntu, which is a web browser. Which is different from the web browser, Chromium, that comes in most Linux distros.

Personally, I use Firefox as a web browser, but have the regular Google Chrome for linux as a backup. The regular Google Chrome has built-in flash so no need to worry about flash player with it like you sometimes do with Chromium or other issues.
