RLZ tracking lets Google know when Chrome has been downloaded as part of a promotional package, and most users are unlikely to know or care about that. All of these features have been removed, which may or may not be problematic for you. There are seven privacy issues that Iron claims to address: the installation ID, the suggest feature, alternate error pages, error reporting, RLZ tracking, the Google updater, and the URL tracker. Other than that, we noticed very few differences between Iron Portable and Chrome.
We were unable to install Chrome extensions in Iron Portable, but this seems to be related to the fact that this is the portable version of the browser. Visually, SRWare Iron Portable is virtually indistinguishable from Chrome, and it functions just as Chrome does it's sleek and speedy. SRWare Iron Portable is a browser that's based on the Chromium source code and is nearly identical to Chrome, but it addresses several of these privacy concerns. Concerns have been raised about several aspects of Chrome that could potentially compromise user privacy. Google Chrome is a strong contender in the raging browser wars, but it's not without its critics.
