Ars Technica
Chrome now directly tracks users, generates a "topic" list it shares with advertisers.
(Text continues underneath the illustration.)
Google's not looking as good as it used to.
Don't let Chrome's big redesign distract you from the fact that Chrome's invasive new ad platform, ridiculously branded the "Privacy Sandbox," is also getting a widespread rollout in Chrome today. If you haven't been following this, this feature will track the web pages you visit and generate a list of advertising topics that it will share with web pages whenever they ask, and it's built directly into the Chrome browser. (...)
The Electronic Frontier Foundation also argued this when it called Google's FLoC a "terrible idea", saying "[Google's] framing is based on a false premise that we have to choose between 'old tracking' and 'new tracking.' It’s not either-or. Instead of re-inventing the tracking wheel, we should imagine a better world without the myriad problems of targeted ads." (...)
Did any user in the world want a user-tracking and ad platform baked directly into their browser? Probably not, but this is Google, and they control Chrome, and this probably still won't make people switch to Firefox.

Personally, I would be very happy if you would replace the "Blade Runner" timeline with the "Star Trek" timeline by your choice.

Please spread this meme wherever you can. Be nice to other browser users, explain the problem to them and help people in need to install an ad blocker.

"Last week, I turned on my PC, installed a Windows update, and rebooted to find Microsoft Edge automatically open with the Chrome tabs I was working on before the update. I don’t use Microsoft Edge regularly, and I have Google Chrome set as my default browser. Bleary-eyed at 9AM, it took me a moment to realize that Microsoft Edge had simply taken over where I’d left off in Chrome. I couldn’t believe my eyes."

It’s a big year for the oozing creep of corporate paternalism and ad-tracking technology online. Google and its subsidiary companies have tightened their grips on the throat of internet innovation, all while employing the now familiar tactic of marketing these things as beneficial for users. Here we’ll review the most significant changes this year, all emphasizing the point that browser privacy tools (like Privacy Badger) are more important than ever.

Chrome, the most popular web browser by all measurements, recently announced the official death date for Manifest V2, hastening the reign of its janky successor, Manifest V3. (...) [W]hat security benefits it has are bought by limiting what all extensions can do. (...) Put bluntly: Chrome, a browser built by an advertising company, has positioned itself as the gatekeeper for in-browser privacy tools, the sole arbiter of how they should be designed. (...) Google’s trackers are present on at least 85% of the top 50,000 websites. (...)
For what it's worth, Apple's Safari browser imposes similar restrictions to allegedly protect Safari users from malicious extensions. (...)
This is just another step in transforming the browser from a user agent to an advertising agent. (...)
Most recently, people with ad-blockers began to see a petulant message from Youtube when trying to watch a video. The blocking message gave users a countdown until they would no longer be able to use the site unless they disabled their ad-blockers. Privacy and security benefits be damned. YouTube, a Google owned company. (...)
Obviously this all sucks. User security shouldn’t be bought by forfeiting privacy. (...)

Wow...
Not too surprising for those who know well, #GoogleIsEvil since it abolished the policy "don't be evil".

Some bots post a mixture of good and awful stuff.
With ublock origin you can filter out the nausea
eg
In the "my filters" tab enter:
! BLOCK WEB SITES
||www.vtforeignpolicy.com$document
diasp.eu##div.loaded.stream-element:has(div.markdown-content:contains(www.vtforeignpolicy.com))
then click the blue "apply changes" button.
Switch to your Diaspora tab.
Then clear buffers and reload by pressing Shift-Control-R
The first line is just a comment
The second line warns you if you try to go to the site
The third line contains the name of your diaspora pod at the beginning - change accordingly - and the text to look for in each post in the final parantheses.
That will make disappear any post containing that text.
