Chrome is popular because it works. The average person is not going to give up convenience for privacy, even if they claim to care about it. As someone who uses Firefox, I can say that some websites don't work on Firefox and Firefox is often slower than chromium browsers. While I'm ok with that, others might not be.
Chrome is popular because of marketing. Yes it works but I'm sure Firefox works just as fine for the average user.
