I don't like Chrome but I can understand your need to use it.
Chrome, and Chromium, too, spies on users' web habits behind their back. In comparison with firefox, firefox pretty much allows you to switch off any unwanted features through preferences/about:config, and a traffic dump taken when browsing a known web site comes back clean.
Chrome OTOH, even if you turn all the knobs, still creates https traffic to Google servers, and you cannot tell what it is transmitting.
