I will stop using Chrome entirely if this change is made.

Another reason to be glad that Firefox is still standing.

I hope they don’t go on with this... I really don’t want to go back to Firefox.

Well, highly recommend Firefox. Works great after the updates last year and even use it on mobile.

It bothers me that iOS doesn’t support addons to Firefox mobile. But on Android you can even install ublock origin

This was only expected. Why would an advertising company care about web experience, security, or privacy?
