Why won't selling data fly?
Why not sell premium features?
Why not add affiliate codes to links?
Why not sell ads on new tab pages?
All of these are fine examples of how a not-Google Chrome could make money. They could even get paid by Microsoft or some other not-Google search for that traffic.
This isn't hard unless you're trying to make it hard to convince us all we should just give up and let Google continue running our online lives through monopolization.

- creato 2y agoYou're making a great case for why most people should prefer chrome to remain a google product.
- mattlondon 2y agoBecause all of that is super-shady privacy-invading and foisting ads and monetisation in places where it wasn't before. Enshitification at its most user-hostile. How is that a positive to users? Sounds to me that taking chrome away from Google will be a net-negative for the users.
