Chrome's relationship with its userbase can now be considered "coercive", honestly. After all that feedback on the extension manifest, they chose the worst of the options for users, and the best option for Google.
Given gorhill's investigation of their SEC filing and what it reveals, I do not believe anyone should be using Chrome anymore. That doesn't really matter, because once ad-blockers end up hamstrung in a future release, that will just force everyone over to Firefox or Edgeium.
Context: Google has chosen to move forward Manifest V3 changes that hamstring extension's capabilities for blocking arbitrary requests.
This applies to all Chrome users and extensions, except to Enterprise customers.
It makes it abundantly clear that the public feedback they asked for on the change was nothing more than lip service to the extension developer community. I am ashamed to admit I fell for it, because the changes could have been rationalized at the time.
Now, it's abundantly clear that Google wants to exploit you, through Chrome.
Move to Firefox now. There is no better option, now that every other browser is Webkit or Blink based, or directly forked from Chromium.
(and don't get Brave, either. Brave is snake oil meant to justify "good" advertisements. There is no such thing as "good" advertising, this is just the talk of capitalists.)
@SwooshyCueb that he is
@shaderphantom And also, Brendan Eich, the former Mozilla CEO behind it, is a homophobic fash prick who pushed to add an alt-right wiki as a default search option. 
@Jo Jesus christ.
This is new to me. Fuck Brave and fuck Brendan Eich even before that, but this really seals it huh.
@shaderphantom isn't that asshole Eich in charge of Brave? Or am I thinking of something else
