Chromium may still have some tracking put in place by Google.

I've recently been trying out Iridium, and so far, it's a good alternative. It may nag you whenever it tries to connect to google, but it has definitely has gotten better. it uses Qwant as it's default browser, and it appears that they actually want to become a good, privacy-centric Chromium alternative. It'll take me more time to investigate Qwant's privacy policy, along with test Iridium's outbound traffic. --Parley (talk) 14:02, 29 July 2015 (EDT)
