How about not use Chromium? Mozilla/Firefox browsers actually provide privacy protections. Like actually, not chrome plated promises.

The biggest worry is that Chrome brings about change of websites which then requires other browsers to take on their trusted platform stuff in order to work.
I share the same concern. I think either Firefox will find a workaround or privacy advocates will develop open source services to act as shell to access the internet.
I feel it’ll be the latter.
Even if you do think it's plausible that Google can do this in a way that can't be beaten (at every step so far they've lost this war, so the odds really aren't on their side, but let's allow it as a possibility), this just means that we need to get more people onto non-Chromium browsers (meaning Firefox and whatever else comes along) so that it becomes infeasible to run a website that only supports chromium based browsers.
I know the title is clickbait, but why RIP uBlock? There's more than just Chromium browsers.
Yep. Not one mention of firefox in the article...
The article even says that there is a updated ublock origin out for mv3. Its just clickbait.
True, RIP chromium bozos
Just gonna rep for Safari here, since it’s been ignored so far.
