It works for turning on my wifi even when I don’t want to. There are so many settings I enable just to make the nagware go away.
I only access google properties through chrome for this same reason. There’s no way to tell google “I know that chrome exists, I don’t like it, I’m comfortable with my browser.” other than just using chrome.
It seems to me that so many companies are sure of themself so much that no one would ever choose not to do the thing they want. Or they’ve decided they don’t care that it sucks, they’ll do it anyway to make money.
- dredmorbius 4y agoIt is possible to nuke the "use Chrome" and similar nags via uMatrix or a CSS stylesheet manager, by selecting and removing / setting "display: none !important" the specific elements. Not that the behaviour isn't Annoying As Eff and anticompetitive to boot.
