Got this notification when I opened Chrome when coming back to my desk after lunch.
“We changed our privacy settings to allow us to snoop on what you’re looking at and shove you ads accordingly. Feel free to opt out, but we’ll probably opt you back in when you aren’t paying attention.”
Why not? Brave is way better than standard chromium or even ungoogled chromium. Brave Shields is one of the best adblockers I’ve seen. Balances blocking trackers and not breaking websites really well.

Don’t use Brave.
Firefox > Brave > Edge > Chrome. It’s still better to use Brave than the last two.
Hard disagree.
Not having Firefox, or a derivate, I’d rather use Chromium.
Exactly. Or Ungoogled Chromium.
