Want ads? Because this is how you get ads. And not just ads, but targeted tracking and surveillance. Google wants to embed DRM in the entire web, and control it! They would be the ones who attest to what can be seen, and more to the point - What YOU see, or what THEY think you should see. Make no mistake, Google is an advertising company and this would crush all alternate and independent sites and content. Comply or never be seen again. This is purely an arrogant move to increase profits. Google doesn’t want to save you from ads. This is a power grab to force you to see only their ads. And it’s already being pushed into Chromium. What can you do? Get involved and voice your concern.

Join the github peaceful protest to remove the pull request.

Donate to organisations like Mozilla and EFF who will likely take this on if asked.

Use Firefox, Librewolf, Mullvad browser or something not based on Chromium.

Stop using Google products. Stop giving them any data to sell about you. Protest by withholding $. It will effect Chrome, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi and any thing based on Chromium. Here’s more information.

Community Rules

Follow the Code of Conduct

All posts on pop_os must adhere to the Pop!_OS community Code of Conduct. https://github.com/pop-os/code-of-conduct

Be helpful

Posts to pop_os must be helpful. When responding to a user asking for help, do not provide tongue-in-cheek responses like “RTM” or links to LMGTFY. Linking to direct sources that answer the asker’s question is fine, but it’s advised to provide some explanation as to how you got to that source.

Critique should be constructive

We within the Pop!_OS community welcome helpful criticism or ideas on ways to improve. However, basic “It’s bad” or other simple negative comments don’t help anyone fix anything. When voicing a complaint about something, try to point out ways the complaint could be improved or worked around, so that we can make a better product for it.

This rule applies to both Pop!_OS and its projects as well as other products available from third-parties.

Don’t post malicious “advice”

It can be funny to joke about malicious commands, however this is not the venue for it. Do not advise users to run commands which will lock up their systems, steal their data, or erase their drive. Examples of this include (but are not limited to) fork bombs, rm, etc.

Posts violating this rule will be removed, even if the post is clearly in jest. Repeated offences may lead to a ban. You may understand that the command isn’t serious, but a new user might not.

No personal attacks

Posts making a personal attack on any user will not be tolerated.

No hate speech

Hate speech of any kind will not be tolerated. Any violations will be removed, and are grounds for a ban.
