Technological solutions can't solve this at all if the entire stack is controlled by the interested party.
In the case of government snooping, you (theoretically) own the end device being used for access. In the case of corporate snooping, you're using corporate owned and managed devices. There is absolutely no technological solution that exists that will prevent another person from building software for (or selling to) corporations who need to snoop on their employees. Considering the selling price of appliances that perform these services (e.g. Bluecoat's range), the cost of a browser is negligible in comparison.
I don't think it's fair to conflate a lack of privacy on corporate owned devices with a lack of privacy on your own personal devices.
