Chrome now directly tracks users, generates a "topic" list it shares with advertisers.

      Kiwi browser is my chrome workaround, been working really well when needed. My primary browser is Fennec, a Firefox variety with fully enabled add-ons.

            Lol sorry, I was thinking of some other browser and it looks like lil fuckers will upvote anything.

            Hey, any chance you know if Kiwi will implement WEI ?

              That’s brave browser probably. They’ve been sketchy all around.

              Unfortunately no idea about WEI :-/
