Chrome for Linux without the Spyware

When you get Chrome for Linux beta from Google or Chromium from the Ubuntu repository, there is some tracking code in there. Some say that's why Chrome is spyware or adware. Iron fixes this by removing the code to identify your brother. The download link can be found here. You may still be interested in getting the stop Google Ad tracking cookie. This link can always be found conveniently in my links section in the right column.

For Chrome, Google tells us we can:
From Chrome, click on the "Customize and Control Google Chrome" icon, and in the drop-down menu, select "Options"
Select the "Under the Hood" tab
Under "Cookie settings" select "Restrict how third-party cookies can be used
(http://www.google.com/ads/preferences/plugin/browsers.html#chrome)

But for me it's really called "Accept Cookies only from Sites I Visit".
