Is Firefox better than Chrome? It comes down to privacy

In a week of Web surfing on my desktop, I discovered 11,189 requests for tracker “cookies” that Chrome would have ushered right onto my computer but were automatically blocked by Firefox. Google’s product managers told me in an interview that Chrome prioritizes privacy choices and controls, and they’re working on new ones for cookies. The Firefox Web browser, seen here on a Mac, gives users the option to sign in to sync bookmarks and login information, but doesn’t send browsing data to maker Mozilla.
