Hi

I may be biased, but I understand your confusion.

There are lots of different browsers available and it is really down to you to decide to use the one that you want to use. Chrome is designed to help you use the web but it does it in such a way that your searches and activity become product revenue for Google. That is not very fair.

Mozilla Firefox is different. It is built and supported by a global community of developers and contributors who want to make the web better. We build it openly, so that people can identify and fix problems and that people can see how difficult it is to disrupt. This video will tell you a bit more about this and us.

Sounds like he was either paid/told to say this and or a Google Chrome fan.

If one must use the "big brother" Google Chrome at least use Chromium instead.

Every browser is evolving quickly, and when new security issues are discovered they hopefully are fixed promptly. You can see which ones have been fixed in Firefox on the following page, and there probably are similar pages for other browsers: https://www.mozilla.org/security/know.../firefox.html.

If you have particular security concerns, there may be an add-on, external program, or service to help address it as a supplement to Firefox's own features.
