being the leading web browser, Chrome raises several privacy issues — and you should refrain from using it on your Android device and other gadgets if you can. Issues regarding Google’s data sharing policies and other privacy violations have emerged, but there is an even larger problem with Chrome’s Sync feature.
If any device associated with your Google Account is compromised, then that data leak probably affects all other devices you had synchronized together. For instance: Even if your synchronized phone is properly secured, if someone gains entry to your synced laptop, then data shared by your phone through Sync might still be at risk. Although Chrome’s Sync can operate automatically, the positive aspect is that it can be disabled manually. Even more encouraging, there are alternatives to Chrome that provide robust privacy safeguards.
