Google already knows enough about me (it reads my mail, my feeds, my search history, and a few shared documents, to boot,) I’m certainly not going to add virtually everything else I do (the percent of things I do using a protocol other than http(s) is dwindling by the second.) I am going to have to stop using Chrome.

Sure, why not.
