That's a low-level Microsoft style move. Didn't thought Google will do it

Is this real? Lmao
The problem is that you are using chrome to begin with
I use Chrome because it integrates with the other Google services and hardware I use and because I just like it better. I fully understand the data collection thing and I'm ok with it to some extent. I like that Google shows me things that I might be interested in based on searches or sites I visit, but I TOTALLY understand why others might not be ok with it. I am more concerned with the government having access to my information than Google but not to the point of paranoia.

Reminds me of Peacock's web client trying to get me to use something other than Brave browser, because Brave browser blocks their ads completely.
HAHA, nope.
Peacock straight up disallows anyone running Linux from using it, regardless of what browser they're using. Guess I'll just pirate lol

Can’t possibly slow it down anymore than it has been
More people finding out every day that big tech is your enemy and should be treated as such.
Me: Oh no, what will i do! Absolutely fuck all
If it gets worse just switch to firefox
Firefox is already perfect, no need to wait for Chrome to shit its pants.
