Con Now under the KDE umbrella

Flagged Pros + Cons
Con Same security-holes as Chrome
Falkon uses the same browser engine as Chrome, meaning it has the same security-holes as Chrome. Chrome is a big target for hackers (being the most commonly used browser). A webpage that will hack Chrome will likely hack Falkon.
