I have to say that but, over the last few years, I have been getting progressively more and more concerned about Google in a way that I was never concerned about Microsoft 10-12 years ago. Google is not a good corporate citizen. They have acquiesced to numerous demands by foreign governments in order to get access to their markets. If you're concerned about government invading your privacy - imagine them with Google as a partner.
I have included the Bing toolbar and try to use it. And I never use Chrome except to check to see if my coding renders well. Then again I don't use Facebook much because they don't respect individual privacy either.
