I have been working on black hat SEO and one thing I discovered with 100% certainty is that Google Chrome tracks user behavior and sends this to Google which Google uses to influence search result rankings. So if you use Google Chrome, then Google knows which pages you have visited. And remember, Google is evil.

Then try using opera browser. Everyone seems to be saying its better and faster than chrome. It also includes a free VPN for surfing anonymously and unblocking sites if you're in China. You can download it below. It has browsers for you PC, Mac, laptop and browser apps for your smart phone too.

Everyone seems to like it so far and all the independent reviewers say its better than other browsers such as chrome. See below.

How are expats in China able to see Youtube? I'm curious. And what is China doing to block their work arounds?

The expats have to use VPNs of course. But they were not free before and required downloading a client to use. Now they are free and less complicated. You can get them in google play store.

Have any of you noticed that Google Chrome now launches without your permission when you restart Windows? That's f***ed up. They make it hard to disable that too. Here are some ways to disable Chrome from launching up by itself every time you reboot your computer.

Chrome didn't used to do that before. Why is it doing it now? Is it because Google is afraid that rebels like @HappyGuy are using other browsers now, so it automatically launches first in the hope that you will be too lazy to open other browsers and always use Chrome? If so, that's very underhanded and sneaky. Why would they do that? Because they want to spy on you so bad? And why do they make it hard to disable? You can't just go into settings and disable it. Stupid.

Definitely true! Google may track even your personal medical data, which's worse. Hackers can obtain loans, get free medical insurance, and request treatment or drugs on behalf of patients, using their stolen identities. Fraudsters can receive refunding for treatment that has never been provided, make protected health information public, cause information wars, and serve as spies causing international political issues.
