Ask HN: Who can explain justifications for these recommendations?

Lately I've seen these recommendations pop up in various threads: http://bit.ly/2zDk9qx Given the non-technical audience, and the short, direct instructional nature of the guidance, almost no time is spent on the "why" of these recommendations. Can folks here help expand just a bit on these, e.g., why use Chrome instead of Firefox, why use Gmail instead of say Fastmail or your ISP's mail, why is Siri not safe to use etc.
