looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don't run a complaint browser ( cough...firefox )
here is an article in hacker news since i'm sure they can explain this to you better than i.
and also some github docs
Fuck google and anything they have to offer.
And what phone are you using ? What apps do you use
Google is pretty integrated into life.
Yes fuck them but don't lie.
not @yoz, but it's totally possible to avoid Google.
iPhone, just another web mail provider, OpenStreetMaps, DuckDuckGo, and whatever else I need I host myself on my Synology.
I use Google at work because I have to, but otherwise it stays out of my life.
Yeah so you use an iPhone. Apple. Fantastic. A trillion dollar company. It never svuses it's Power. So all android users shall move to apple. C'mon now.
I find dick dick go gives horrible search results. So you basically just use all apple products instead
It’s not the promised land of open source and free software. But at the very least they have a business model that does not consist of selling all my data to the highest bidder.
I think that much we can acknowledge.
Now, will they comply with law enforcement, usually yes. That’s part of running a company, and that’s a good thing. But what do you expect? Some medium sized free software company (because to sell hardware you need a company) that does not comply with law enforcement?
That’s raising expectations to unfulfillable levels. Are you a forever unsatisfiable grievance-monger?
Sorry to hear that DuckDuckGo doesn’t work for you. Maybe you gotta use Google instead because there just is no alternative.
You can't possibly believe that.
I expect my encrypted data to remain encrypted and out of the laws hands.
iPhone ain't the way to go if you care about security or privacy, sadly. Buying a Pixel and putting a different OS on it is.
Guess what company makes the Pixels? You're still helping them if you buy.
Apple isn't the way to go though, so your options are Pixels (with a different OS) or no phones if you truly care about your privacy.
Haven't ever suggested Apple. I'm just saying that (or anything) doesn't justify the answer being a Pixel from Google of all companies.
There's lots of Linux phones going around.
