Chomium isn't Chrome, but Chrome is Chromium. Just like Vivaldi or Edge aren't Chrome, they're Chromium (based). Unless you can show that these tracking features are going into the Open Source Chromium Project, we're pretty safe. Google has stripped the "good stuff" (account syncing/backup and maybe a few other things I'm unaware of) from Chromium in order to force people to Chrome, at least on Linux.

Sure. I am with you. That's not what my previous message was about, though.

I agree with you 100% on what you just said.
