They use browser fingerprinting to track activity across those sites and connect user activity to specific profiles, even if you never touch the “login using Facebook/share on Facebook” buttons.

Big issue is you don’t know how well it does this. As you can’t see the other side of the equation.
Even if it’s perfect. Many times I need to use a chromium based browser to use a website properly (the website fault not Firefox). Additionally many apps are just web views that are based on chrome. It’s hard to avoid this type of tracking.
