We have every reason to be skeptical of Google where privacy is concerned, but the design described here looks interesting. In particular, proxying only the off-site resources, and running them through two proxy layers from different providers.

I still won't use Chrome, but if the design holds up to scrutiny, something like it on Firefox (with configurable independent proxy providers) could be appealing.

So, instead of companies tracking your IP address, they will have to pay Google to buy your IP address, along with your Google account info and demographics.

They stopped caring about your ip address and have moved to profiling, so they’ll gladly help you change your ip address to get more from you.
