If you value privacy, ditch Chrome and switch to Firefox now (www.fastcompany.com)

With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

regarding cookies which are fucking annoying...

you can install this:

https://consentomatic.au.dk/

(its supported by various browsers including chromium based, and firefox)

its open source, and made by some people at the university of Aarhus in Denmark.

you set the preferences and it automatically clicks your preferences, to the cookies, on the site(s) you visit.

its very much a "set and forget" kinda thing.

it doesn't prevent cookie tracking or anything. it just fills out the cookie-consentform automatically based on your preferences (so check those after installing)
