I can tell you that Chrome can run a lot of instances of what looks like itself on a Windows 7 PC. You have to the Processes tab of your Task Manager to see them, and this happens whether you are running it or not. I don't have the skills to verify anything on this list (other than Chrome syncs across all of your devices if you sign in, but that's an advertised feature), but based on my observation of Chrome's behaviour it wouldn't surprise me.

ya its built to run itself in your ram to respond faster you can disable it but they still track you

sadly its impossible to tell where big brother starts and big corporation ends now days. I say trust no one and use what works for you since its all rigged outside of some linux distros and vpn's

Considering how many strings the government tries to attach to everything, is there really a difference between Big Brother and Big Corporation?

I only use Chrome for things I don't care about anyone knowing about. For most everything else I just use Firefox. If I care about tracking/anonymity (ie: to avoid your average doxxer) I'll kick it over to a TOR browser. If I really care about it I'll run Tails off of a thumb drive on public wifi.
