Here is a small list (which I can improve if you want): [0] Google Chrome is non-free software, it violates your freedoms. [1] [2] [3] It tracks its users in multiples ways. [4] It spies its users by listening and recording their conversations. [5] It implements DRM : Encrypted Media Extensions. [6] It has been made to jail its users. [7] [8] [9] It arbitrarily blocks ad-blockers and unverified extensions. [10] It contains vulnerabilities (and users can't correct them themselves).
