In reply to the discussion: Why You Suddenly Need To Delete Google Chrome [View all]lambchopp59
(2,809 posts)I am impressed how lightning fast, how free of algorithmic "suggestions" that tend to be way off the mark anyhow: sick of seeing the likes of "since you're interested in politics look at this FOX NEWS, NEWSMAX or OAN snippet!!" one after another. Screw that game of whack-a-mole. Google's browsers had it's heyday, but I'm through.
Frankly I don't care what information they "collect", nothing to hide here. But the algorithmic profiling designed to sell you crap has gone way out of hand.
I agree it's not specifically "dangerous", just annoying and rendered my site-linked email address useless, flooded with SPAM lock stock, barrel. I created a new "professional" email to keep relatively clean, and relegated the old one as a "shopping" email, Let it flood, I can bulk "delete". But I need to find really important professional stuff without sorting through hundreds of ads hourly. That's the "danger" they're referring to. Sorry, lost the link to that info, it was over a month ago, prior to wiping out my OS and Chrome.
