Like, ages ago? Google has been called out on their shady shit tons of times, it just doesn't have much of an effect because Chrome isn't as objectively crap as IE was. It works and it's familiar, for most people that's all that really matters. They have "NotHiNg to HidE" after all.

People who have nothing to hide don't use locks in their houses

Use this information carefully

If you were reading the comment I'm replying to and thinking to yourself "well, if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear", let me ask you something.

When you go to the bathroom, do you close the door?

Do you think we should have security cameras in every public bathroom stall watching every man, woman, and child who does their business just to make sure nobody's doing drugs in there? (Criminalization of addiction is an entirely separate issue, but you get the point.)

No? You're worried about perverts watching the security tape?

Now you understand why we want online privacy.
