    It’s because ANY COMMERCIAL TRACKING AT ALL is unacceptable!

    Chrome is trying to have it’s cake and eat it too by removing 3rd party cookies and baking in another tracking methodology anyways.

    The User Has Spoken and we DEMAND that there be NO TRACKING! The browser devs are complying with that demand in various ways to various degrees.

    Firefox complies with this demand openly and honestly. Third party cookies are not a thing much anymore and the browser actively tries to punish companies who try to do it anyways; while also allowing us to turn to other plugin developers to further punish companies who try to aggressively invade our privacy.

    Google Chrome, on the other hand, complies very maliciously because it’s made by one of those companies who are trying to track us anyways. It removes third party cookies on the one hand and on the other hand tries to introduce other tracking technologies and WebDRM while also trying to severely curtail browser plugins that we choose to install to assert our rights to privacy our way.

    You can’t tell me that’s not an evil dick move on the part of Google and the Chrome team. Chrome needs to clean up it’s act and the development team of Chromium needs to forcefully eject it’s Google developers and find new ones to retake the internet.

    Google developers cannot be trusted not to put the interests of Google first; it’s literally what they’re paid to do.
