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. (mastodon.world)

What about the ad blocker changes they’re making? That’s pretty much the line for me. I use chrome everywhere but when ublock stops working well that’ll be me jumping ship. The web is a fucking unreadable cesspool without a solid adblocker running.

The adblock changes is a shit stain, absolutely agree with you there.

For my household, personally, it won't make a difference because I have a pihole blocking everything from all devices. So that change isn't enough to persuade me to make a move.

But yes, anyone who doesn't have pihole of and uses adblockers, it will be 100% understandable for them to jump ship.
