Re: "Another way in which Google Chrome spies on users"
You can't collect data for one purpose then use it for a different purpose under EU law.
Tech companies don't do that kinda stuff any more, at least not intentionally. I personally think that some did and some didn't, but I won't get into details, it's anyway history and they have really good lawyers ;)

Another way in which Google Chrome spies on users — It turns out Google Chrome (via Chromium) includes a default extension which makes extra services available to code running on the *.google.com domains - tweeted about today by Luca Casonato, but the code has been there in the public repo since October 2013 as far as I can tell.
