An even better course of action is for people to switch to a browser that care about users' privacy and block trackers by default.
Google makes billions from targeted advertising every year, don't expect it to improve privacy unless it's forced to by regulation or competition.
Yeah if you use a google product and expect privacy, you dont know how google makes money.
Yeah, I have been wondering my whole life that there are so many people believing in 'privacy tools' by companies like Google. This is one of the things that mystifies me most.
