Linux with 100% marketshare means nothing.
GPL is designed to protect developer rights, not user rights.
If google packaged your linux distro and sold it through the play store bundle with their own apps and sandboxed everything and called it chromeOS, your rights would not be any better protected.
Security involves users making informed choices to protect themselves.

And as long as Chrome OS didn’t have majority market share it would be fine
