- whizzter 6mo agoExactly, for all the hate of Windows, I could at least just look for shit named co-pilot and uninstall it for a pretty nice experience on my new computer. Phones aren't always as straightforward (especially jarring as "Google services" are required in Sweden on Android for stuff like mobile identity systems).
- StingyJelly 6mo agoThis is so absurd... I have to keep an old (rooted in order to hide that adb is enabled) phone connected to my home server just to use such app, because grapheneos without google services is apparently not secure enough.

- nottorp 6mo agoOh and why is it there? Do you really think it's not loaded and executed automatically by default, so some Google executive can justify their "AI" spend?
- joegibbs 6mo agoI don’t. Do you have any actual evidence they’re doing that beyond the vibe?
- nottorp 6mo agoDo I look like law enforcement? I don't have to do innocent until proven guilty. It's the tech company's problem to convince me they are trying to do something useful to me. Come to think of it, it's their problem to convince me they still understand "useful to the customer" first.
- paganel 6mo ago4GB of storage is not a “mere” thing, to the contrary.
- mightysashiman 6mo agoDon't install chrome in the first place then
- nottorp 6mo agoI'm logged in to work in Chrome and to personal stuff in Firefox :)
- izacus 6mo agoDoes that include the CPU burning cat girl captchas or not?
- account42 6mo agoIt absolutely should.
