Firefox 10 is available on FreeBSD

Is this still true regarding Chrome/Chromium: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncerhCLi2o0&feature=player_embedded?

Most of these are issues with Google viewed in any browser, not Chromium specifically. In the video, the guy even says “This issue is not specific to Chrome, as the feature works on all browsers the same way.”

• Google autocompletes no matter what browser you use.
• IP address geolocation can be done by any website you’re visiting.
• The “typos in web addresses” feature can be easily disabled in Chrome preferences: uncheck “Use a web service to help resolve navigation errors” in “Under the Hood.”
• Google Analytics works no matter what browser you’re using. If you worry about it, use NoScript or something to block it specifically.

Yep. I didn't look at that until now but remember it (from over 3 years ago, btw). These are wonderful features that only help and do no harm but make excellent videos for the paranoid.
