In fact, make the entire UI modular.

Don't like tabs? Uncheck that box.
Don't like cookies? Uncheck that box.
Don't want bookmarks? Uncheck that box.
Don't want to use $plugin? Uncheck those boxes too!
Or disable the entire extensions system? Uncheck that friggin box!

There's no reason this "feature full" browser can't be reduced to nothing more than an address bar and a couple buttons as a minimal interface to webkit.

A SSN is not a requirement for having a job. I would know as I legally terminated mine in the 70s and haven't had much of a problem since.

That's quite a leap of logic. Legitimate rape means the person being raped was forced to do it and under duress.

It's not a leap of logic to say that someone feeling guilty AFTER the fact that they did something willingly and calling that rape is illegitimate rape.

Yes it absolutely was. I remember traveling to Toronto from NY and spending about 2-3k on clothes, electronics and other goodies back in 99 and LOVED the difference my CC bill had.
