Google has come out with its own new browser called Chrome, which looks similar to Mozilla's Firefox in some ways. The new browser, like any other software you install, makes you accept their license agreements before you can proceed with the download... however, how many of us actually read the dang thing?? I'm betting not many.

Here is a blurb from Google's Chrome Browser License Agreement: "By submitting, posting or displaying the content, you give Google a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free and non-exclusive license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any Content that you submit, post or display on or through the Services."

    Google has since updated the "offending" section of Chrome's and other product EULA's:

    this isnt anything unusual, most would be suprised if they took the time to read any EULA but very few people do

    Excerpt from an article: individuals have a clear way to use Chrome and avoid having this occur.Turning off the auto-suggest feature means that Google will neither get nor store this information.
