Once this starts affecting me is lonely what will push me to other Crowder's I've never felt the need to leave chrome. I have a lot of Google related services and products so it would be hypocritical of me to draw an arbitrary line at browsers but not the rest, because personally i don't care about tracking and whatnot cause it's mostly just to serve targeted ads and I don't see them for the most part so I don't care, gimme all your cookies. But if I stay seeing ads again more prominently and there's no workaround, then I'm out. Moving on.
And you think US government and 5 eyes countries won't have access? What happens when that elaborate detailed profile data of yours gets hacked?
You are free to choose at any point where you draw the line.
I live in the UK. I'm already watched by cctv in public almost at all times, I'm not bothered by people seeing what I do.
I'm in the UK also. I care about this though.
