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.

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

Yeah, that's not even how Ublock Origin fucking works, what a hilariously ignorant take.

Yep. Facts.

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