I figure if someone knows to download SRWare they should be able to change Under the Hood settings. Also the default config doesn't have crash reports enabled by default, only some of Google's web services. As the article I posted shows those web services don't give nearly as much information as people assume they do.
Good to know about Dragon's beta releases. But I find that Chrome Beta is exceptional.
I can also assume that Dragon and SRWare don't contain a PDF viewer and don't package Flash. I can also assume that they don't patch Flash, which is something you get in Chrome... a patched and sandboxed Flash.
That's a big deal for me. Flash is a very big part of the average users attack surface unless they use Chrome, which greatly reduces the risks.
You are correct, Dragon does not patch flash. You have to install and maintain the same plugin of flash that is used for firefox,ect. Dragon is however without the privacy issues of Chrome, as well as having other security features incorporated, such as, Domain Validation technology that identifies and segregates superior SSL certificates from inferior ones, the ability to block websites from knowing where you came from (suppress HTTP Referrer header), you can start the browser in incognito mode, which eliminates the cookie problem, and you have it's phishing and malware protection. Here recently, Site Inspector was implemented.
So personally, if i had to chose between Chrome and Dragon, my choice would be with Dragon.
