MODERATORS
I mean, define "ok" in this context
Will chrome kill you? No
Will chrome physically hurt anyone else because you used it? No
Will the internet become less free if google is able to successfully force this? Yes
Does using chrome contribute to this? Yes, marginally
Would as many people as possible switching off of chrome and chromium and onto an alternative help? Yes

He ain't bright and Google will win this because most of men are just puppets unwilling to discern
I think Google will win this too, just like I think we're going to make the planet uninhabitable.
But I'm not going to roll coal, and I'm not going to use Chrome.
