So, what you're saying is: Chrome will have severely decreased functionality and users will no longer be able to protect themselves from sketchy ads that contain scams, malware, and other nefarious bullshit (often hosted on Google's own ad networks)?

Whew, kinda weird to find a Google employee on lemmy. I would have thought there were rules against that in the would employee handbook.

I don’t work for Google. Are you in a cult or an anti-opensource PR firm? Why would that be your first instinct in response to facts? Go read the beginners guide to MV3. Maybe you could learn a thing or two before talking about feelings.

And if you aren’t aware, astroturfing is a thing.

It did not always used to be this way, though it was always headed here.
