Oh wow! This is neat Google! This is a great distraction from your other invasive and insidious tracking you’re introducing in your browser.
I’ll go redownload Chrome now and give up Firefox.
Beam me up, mothership
Can I assume you're talking about the new ad system? I see a lot of concern over it, but no real explanations on why it's worse than the current cookie-based identification system. Can you enlighten me?
Ah yes, even more phoning home!
I often wonder, "Can't my web browser keep Alphabet better apprised of my personal life and interests?" Yes, it can! Finally, an ad company that 'gets me'.
Yeah, fuck Google on that. I despise the regular Safe Browsing list already as-is. They've flagged my domain a few times over the years over false positives, like when Lemmy was taking off and I installed it, it got flagged as impersonating another Lemmy instance. The same happened with a few other self hosted services, because they see an identical login page to other existing domains and mark it as a phishing attempt.
I had to sign up with a developer account just to request reevaluations, so now my domains are linked to my Google Account and they know everything about me. No feedback whatsoever, they just unblocked it after the appeal. No apology, no tips to prevent it in the future.
Google should absolutely not have the authority of taking down people's websites on a whim based on an entirely AI based and automated fashion.
At this point, Google only cares about their partners and big companies, all the organic small fish websites no longer matter to them whatsoever. They constantly fuck with YouTubers and Android developers, and now they're expanding their overreach to the entire damn Internet.
Say no to Google.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
