I need to de-Google my life.

Or wait to get your portion of that settlement money, which would probably amount to a whopping $3.00 per person.

It would be interesting to see them be made to actually delete shit they allegedly shouldn't have.

I don't even sort of see how this particular case has merit when chrome outright tells you that incognito mode means nothing at all to any website you visit, but "torch everything illegitimate" sounds fun as hell to enforce.

I'm using Firefox. I still get the pop-ups. I'm also using NextDNS and uBlock Origin.
