This is the best summary I could come up with:

This summer, Google began rolling out its new Topics API, which “allows a browser to share information with third parties about a user’s interests while preserving privacy.” A part of Google’s new Privacy Sandbox, the API is supposed to replace the third-party cookies that have been following us around for many years now, reporting where we go and what we buy, among other info.

The Topics API was included in July’s Chrome 115 release.

If the idea of sharing information about your interests with third parties doesn’t thrill you, you can easily turn it off.

If you want, you can pause to find out more about what interests and sites Google has been associated with you.

You can even just turn off subcategories for each — for example, under Ad topics, you can block Business and industrial but keep Computer and video games active.

And if it isn’t enough, you can look into some of the more privacy-centric browsers, such as DuckDuckGo and Brave.
