Go is the most boring language I have ever coded in, and that is why I love it. Sure, it doesn't have some fancy bells and whistles people seem to want, but when you can sit down and write something functional, portable, and readable

I don't consider it spying when you have the option to turn it off. https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95656?hl=en Sync is pretty obvious since you clearly have no control over the backend. However, t

You can examine your TCP traffic and verify that Chrome is or isn't doing anything with your data. That's a fact. A lot of security experts out there would be making noise if they discovered that Chrome was phoning home, or doing
