&gt;I&#x27;m not a superfan of the information I imagine Google collects from my using Chrome, but the browser itself is just too good to give up.<p>If you don&#x27;t want to send information back to Google, don&#x27;t use Chrome.<p>Use Chromium instead.  It&#x27;s Chrome, but without the spyware, and only has the open-source components.<p>It won&#x27;t work for Netflix though, but for all your other browsing, it should work exactly the same as Chrome.  Keep Chrome around for Netflix.
