    Google probably pays lip service to media companies insisting Torrent == Piracy

    I think it's not Google who is paying for lip service, it's MPAA and RIAA.

    I think that the people who know what tails is, do not use google chrome anyway. However, it is deeply troubling that google is close to achieving monopoly on browsers, and due to that, most sites simply stop supporting alternatives. That in turn, will reinforce googles browser monopoly even
    more.

    Maybe the ladybig browser will be what sets us free?
