    It is, on my opinion. Lemmers should know Google is not a good faith actor.

      For some people, sure - actively choosing chrome despite knowing the kind of company Google has become is silly

      But then I think about the people who have chrome pre-installed on their phones, with no ability to remove it. Despite using a different browser, they still got burned by this.

      I do believe lemmings have a higher tech literacy than the average internet user, but I also believe tech literacy shouldn’t be a requirement to hide from ai.

      The people who boast about using chrome and insist other browsers are trash absolutely had their faces eaten… But the people who did their best to avoid chrome did not

        Those were the people I was referring to. I was referring to the people who do know better.

        But it’s true what you’re saying as well, about devices where you have no choice. Not very easy to do anything about that.
