    I mean, define “ok” in this context

    Will chrome kill you? No

    Will chrome physically hurt anyone else because you used it? No

    Will the internet become less free if google is able to successfully force this? Yes

    Does using chrome contribute to this? Yes, marginally

    Would as many people as possible switching off of chrome and chromium and onto an alternative help? Yes

    I find this whole thing an interesting argument, as someone who switched from chrome to firefox for extremely unrelated reasons months ago.

        I think Google will win this too, just like I think we’re going to make the planet uninhabitable.

        But I’m not going to roll coal, and I’m not going to use Chrome.
