Used to be Google's motto but...  From Forbes:

Why You Shouldn’t Use Google Chrome After New Privacy Disclosure
If you’re among the billions of people using Chrome, then Google’s stark new data harvesting disclosures should come as a nasty surprise. Worse, a new Chrome revelation, one that hasn’t yet made headlines but which is detailed below, should serve as an even more serious warning. Here’s what you need to do now.

Google is under fire this week, after the surprising amount of your data harvested by Chrome has been disclosed. This is a genuine threat to your privacy. Worse, a more serious issue for Google, detailed below, hasn’t even made headlines yet. Chrome is totally out of step with Safari, Edge and Firefox, shattering Google’s “privacy first web” claims. All of which should give you a serious reason to quit Chrome today.

Story is about two weeks old and this has been covered before in the tech media.  Nice to see Forbes wising up. Best solution out there? Switch to Brave Browser - based on Chrome and all the plug-ins work but built around security and preserving your data. It just works.  Been using it for a while.
