Firefox is US Govt Spyware. I should know, I helped create it.

Google Chrome has had a big impact on the browser market since its release in September 2008. The latest report from NetMarketShare puts Chrome at 6.73% market share, ahead of Safari on 4.72% and behind only IE (59.95%) and Firefox (24.59%).

What's more interesting about Chrome is the activity it's enjoying from early adopters and geeks. Our own browser statistics at ReadWriteWeb show that Chrome was used by 17.89% of our readers in April, putting it behind only Firefox (38.95%) and IE (24.76%). Further, our figures show a very clear movement from Firefox to Chrome over the past year. Chrome has gained nearly 11% over the past year, whereas Firefox has lost over 15%. Firefox sucks, Pedro.


Recently because of the mysterious plugin-container.exe (Firefox plugin) that eats up 100% of your PC memory, many FF users, including me are abandoning Firefox in huge numbers. The plugin-container.exe secretly seems to be some kind of malware and government spyware and Firefox's responses are more than weird. -Craig
