- cosmojg 6y agoIndeed, it is. That's why this exists: https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium
- tuananh 6y agofor those that care so much about privacy but figure it's still ok to download ungoogled-chromium > NOTE: These binaries are provided by anyone who are willing to build and submit them. Because these binaries are not necessarily reproducible, authenticity cannot be guaranteed; In other words, there is always a non-zero probability that these binaries may have been tampered with. In the unlikely event that this has happened to you, please report it in a new issue.
- livre 6y agoAdvertising ID likely yes, but Chromium still connects to other Google services in the background. If you want Chrome without Google your best option is ungoogled-chromiun.
