Why would I ever care about Chrome? I can't use adblockers on Chrome, which makes the internet even less usable than it currently is. I only start up chrome to bypass cross-origin restrictions when I need to monkey-patch javascript to download things websites try to keep me from downloading (or, like when I need to scrape from a Google website... javascript scraper bots seem to evade their bot detection perfectly, just finished downloading a few hundred gigabytes of magazines off of Google Books).

Seriously, fuck Chrome. We're less than 2 years away from things being as bad as they were in the IE6 years.
