Chrome: mines literally everything about you without telling you, ties your entire browser history to your Google account, and makes predictions based on it, but asks you just this once for permission

Firefox: fights for user privacy for decades, opposes FLoC, and then enables one privacy-friendly reporting technology without warning users
