And where is the problem with any of that? It helps you to store your data, browses faster and makes sure you're secure.

You can also disable all of this shit if you want but this would gimp your browsing experience.

2. duh?
5. so?
6. OH NOES, A BROWSER THAT KEEPS ITSELF UPDATED
7. which makes searching better
8. HOLY SHIT, THEY WANT TO IMPROVE IT

The problem with Windows is, that it's an OS and most of the botnet shit actually make the user experience worse. All of the Google spying either benefits or doesn't affect you.

Besides, it can be turned down for both, sans telemetry.

> Every URL you begin to type in the address bar is sent to Mozilla, in whole or in fragments, for auto-completion purposes.
This is probably untrue. Google Chrome has the url bar combined with the search bar. Anything you type is sent to the default search provider, if the search provider supports automatic search suggestions.

Mozilla Firefox has separate url and search bars. The url bar provides suggestions from your bookmarks and browser history.

> Connects to websites in the background before you are even finished typing them in, without your explicit instruction.

Open about:config
Search for "prefetch"
Set network.dns.disablePrefetch to true.
Set network.prefetch-next to false.

Actually it sends it to Google for whitelist checking.
