I highly doubt that. I think the browser will be adopted quickly and overtake the market. Neither the majority of browser users nor Google care about privacy or anonymity. Google also wants the browser to be used by businesses - so there will be many features similar to those IE has in the Windows version. There's a reason why Chromium/Chrome uses Windows' proxy crap on Windows, and the developers are refusing to change that despite many requests. http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=266
