Google's Privacy Sandbox is dead. It was supposed to replace third-party cookies in the Chrome web browser, but Google scrapped that plan following years of pushback, and now Google is retiring most Privacy Sandbox technologies. https://privacysandbox.com/news/update-on-plans-for-privacy-sandbox-technologies/ #Google #WebBrowsers #Cookies #GoogleChrome #PrivacySandbox

Oh wow, Google is really sneaky with their AI Mode button on the new tab page in Chrome. Here's a very unintuitive way to disable it.
1. Open chrome://flags/ in your browser.
2. Look for "ntp-compose-entrypoint".
3. Switch to "disabled".
4. Restart your browser.

What the fuck is wrong with #GoogleChrome / #Blink developers and their obsession with making the #web worse for everybody?

We need to break #Google's dominance on the #web yesterday, and make it painful for them.
