Everyone who still uses chrome after this insane breach of trust (if there was any before) should seriously think about why he enjoys corporate boot on his neck that much.
Most people don't know, aren't paying attention, and don't understand. It's our thankless task to try to educate and convince our less savvy friends.
Sadly, in my experience, it's useless. They usually think you're the weird one. Especially nowadays in the "AI" era. Whenever I talk negatively about it I get weird looks. People love their corpo slop.
We are the weird ones. But the only thing that changes people mind is in-group pressure. If people trust you, they'll at least humor you. Plant those seeds.
I keep thinking back to to the tweens when crypto miners would infect computers. IMO same strategy. Why buy the compute (Data Centers) when you can crowdsource it?
