If you care at all about privacy and the future of a free Internet, this really should be that watershed moment that makes you take your head out of the sand.<p>Seriously. Uninstall Chrome today and switch to something else. It’s only if enough people do it that they lose their grip and influence.

&gt; “If you just clicked the big blue button that said “Got it” to make the pop-up go away, you opted yourself in.”<p>The screenshots in the article clearly illustrate a concerning trend: users are often subtly coerced into opting into certain features or settings without full awareness. This usually happens when they hurriedly click a prominent button like &#x27;Got it&#x27; just to dismiss an annoying pop-up. It highlights a significant problem in UX where clarity and consent are traded for corporate gain. We need for more robust laws governing terms of service agreements, transparent pricing during sign-up processes, and the design of preference dialogs to ensure they are user-friendly and transparent. This is extremely user hostile.

Third party cookies were used without your opt in consent to create profiles based on your behavior by companies like LiveRamp or Oracle. Apple and Google have eliminated or will eliminate the covert tracking based on 3p cookies and mobile ad ids. I don’t support dark UI patterns but privacy sandbox and Apple AppTrackingTransparency hurt advertisers, publishers, and ad platforms but improve consumers privacy. It is not a black and white situation given the monopolistic size of these two tech titans but their privacy solutions are based on aggregated and locally stored data vs cloud based covert 1:1 identifiers - which you couldn’t control.

I checked “ad topics” (I do this occasionally) and there are more topics, but they are still really generic and seem entirely harmless in my case. Yes, it’s personalization, but only barely.<p>On the other hand, website domain names are often very specialized, which means that “Site suggested ads” can be very specific. These are the ads that follow you around. So far I’ve just deleted one that annoyed me.<p>It seems pretty controllable.

<p><pre><code> The idea is that instead of the dozens of third-party cookies placed on websites by different advertisers and tracking companies, Google itself will track your interests in the browser itself, controlling even more of the advertising ecosystem than it already does. Google calls this “enhanced ad privacy,” perhaps leaning into the idea that starting in 2024 they plan to “phase out” the third-party cookies that many advertisers currently use to track people. But the company will still gobble up your browsing habits to serve you ads, preserving its bottom line in a world where competition on privacy is pushing it to phase out third-party cookies. </code></pre> Assuming “phase out display &#x2F; personalized advertising completely” isn’t on the docket, which tbh we should be looking to the state to enforce that rule before we look to the (now public) corporation that invented the field, what else would people here rather them do? If I click around the EFF do they have some more sound&#x2F;explicit arguments somewhere on that question?

It&#x27;s better not to use Chrome in the first place. There&#x27;s no point staying in an abusive relationship.<p>Use Firefox instead. uBlock Origin works best in Firefox:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;gorhill&#x2F;uBlock&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;uBlock-Origin-works-best-on-Firefox">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;gorhill&#x2F;uBlock&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;uBlock-Origin-works-b...</a>

<i>Google referring to any of this as “privacy” is deceiving.</i><p>It&#x27;s pure doublespeak. Privacy is surveillance.

When I first saw this I was really confused about what to do as it seemed I was turning privacy off by turning these off. The use of the term privacy with this feature is confusing

Is it truly turned off after taking these measures? Is there anything we can do to verify that Google&#x27;s Privacy Sandbox is not actively tracking us?<p>It&#x27;s reminiscent of turning off Bluetooth and WiFi in the Settings on iPhones, only to find out they still emit radio waves.

<i>Just in case anyone missed the memo</i><p>Google is an advertising company that only makes money with the shitty part of the internet which is why that part is expanding.<p>The chrome plated gmail cohorts have been educated to read for free and publish for compensation. They need a shitty internet to thrive, post and &quot;make something awesome&quot; in.<p>The shitty internet is doing fine and raising the participants it needs.<p>The free internet is indestructible and made by people who care. <i>And of course it belongs to the minority.</i>

I know I appear to be in the minority here, but I trust google to categorize and share my &quot;interests&quot; more than I do random websites (plus, I use enough Google products that they have that info anyway), and I prefer targeted ads to totally irrelevant ones (like the garbage ads on twitter). I&#x27;ll be leaving this on, since it doesn&#x27;t have any tangible negative impact.

I&#x27;m still hoping there will exist an extension to poison it with random categories and random measurement.

My two cents is that while browser tracking matters, people should also be conscious of not giving away their email and cell number when signing up for accounts or making purchases. Every time you do this, the company sells the data to Google and Meta and it gets joined together on those primary keys, creating a comprehensive profile of your interests. Use Apple’s “Hide my email” and I also like the company “my pseudo” which creates throw away e-mails and cell numbers. It’s silly to be all up tight about browser tracking, but then register everywhere with your real personal information.

I recently noticed that even when using a VPN to another country and in Private Browsing in Safari and with Location turned off, Google Search still shows results based on my location!!?

&gt; almost 500 advertising categories<p>Wait. Doesn&#x27;t that just mean that google collects 500 bits of information about you? How is that not considered an ID? I don&#x27;t understand.

Its BS that Google makes these settings per browser and not per account, so you have to make these changes on each computer\phone you use. Anyone know if these settings apply to a private browser session.
