It is essential to stop using Chrome. Under the pretense of saving users from third-party spyware, Google is creating an ecosystem in which Chrome itself is the spyware. Given Google's overwhelming presence in the browser market, this is unconscionable. We should all despise the ad-tech business, and have no sympathy for the companies getting whacked by Google's actions. But we should not permit one monopolist to replace them all. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/12/year-review-googles-corporate-paternalism-browser

    For real, people often give the weakest excuses for not trying or changing something. “But, but… I will have to…” like they have never had to do anything hard before.

      It’s okay. They can make up for it by wanking about some glorious revolution that they can’t even define much less bring about.
