Comment on 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.
Are you alluding to Edge becoming a chromium fork? Or did some orgs really do this weird icon trickery?
Not orgs,…exactly.
There was a huge push by well, a lot of IT and tech based people to get behind and push promotion of Chrome over Firefox and IE. FF had its issues at the time and seemingly everyone trusted Google to no end (ashamedly myself included).
I’m gonna say this happened ~2010 or so.
