Yeah, I didn't understand what the author was trying to get at. Every point made against Firefox, Chrome itself offends to an exponential degree.
Their conclusion of using ungoogled-chromium makes no sense, as it still suffers from at least three of the five issues outlined. At least with Firefox, you have ESR to keep using the version you're accustomed to for a few years. Or you can jump over to TOR if you really distrust Mozilla that much with their opt-out user metrics.
I agree that individual browser choices won't make any changes. But this is where we're at. At least there _is_ a choice. Legislation to break up the browser monopoly is likely our only hope.
