chrome is an awful browser anyways.

NO reason to use it over firefox imo.

It's really laughable that people fear from it/spreading fud...

Without direct evidence of these accusations we (the people) are treading a fine line here, Google could, if they ever chose to do so take action against us (the people) for the slander in this thread. If there were direct evidence of these activities I would certainly use this modification, but here say and panicked ramblings just promote unnecessary concern and worry for everyday people.

I'd like very much to see this evidence, and not just some paranoid mongers blog.

Take a look at your site stats for browsers and you'll more than likely see Google chrome as the third or fourth most popular.

Using this MOD will cost you lost traffic. Chrome is here to stay and grows more and more popular by the day. I fully expect Google chrome to be the third most popular browser within 2 years.

Some sites are private, do not care about traffic, and do not want to be in any search engine.

Installed.

Even if that were the case - google realizes your site's there once a chrome user visits the page. It's not like you're redirecting them to a new server to display the "use alternative browser" message. This mod is pointless in every way. The 72 people that installed just don't realize it I guess. - If you don't want google to index your site - make a robots.txt file stating so. But don't be fooled into using this Mod.

Google could just as easily do what they're doing with chrome simply by using a firefox addon - or their toolbar even... then what? block firefox and tell everyone to use IE... ha that would be a joke.
