This documentary makes the extraordinary claim that Google developed Chrome in order to spy on users' browsing behaviour, which is more uncharitable than necessary. I don't trust Google all that much, and I don't think you should either, but that doesn't mean that everything they do is pure cynical exploitation. Defeating these anti-features and misadventures doesn't require a moral crusade, it only requires you to decide not to use the product, and to tell them why through the feedback feature (though some things, like mass gathering of location data, involve plenty of third parties who will probably keep selling your data to Google whether or not you use Google's services directly).
