If the desired effect is to make people consider not using Chrome, painting Chrome's origins in such rose-tinted light is unlikely to achieve that.
Google engaged in exclusionary "embrace-extend-extinguish"-esque tactics from a very early stage in Chrome's life, and on web properties that predated Chrome's public launch in their development. Painting Chrome as "break[ing] the Web free from corporate greed" is a pretty disparaging insult to those who genuinely have worked for years to try and do that.
