Oh boy, it's happening. Google is flexing it's muscles and abusing it's market position. It has never been a better way to convince and support family and friends in moving across to Firefox, a fast and privacy supporting browser.

I use Firefox and support Mozilla for the reasons you state. I’m just surprised to hear that Chromium is not degoogled. Comments online - even Kbin - suggest otherwise which is unsettling.

that's how google wants it. If people think chromium does'nt have any google in it, they'll use it thinking they're giving the thumbs down to google

Any idea where the myth comes from? Did Chromium start off “clean” and become contaminated later?

I think google bought chromium, but I'm not 100% sure.
