I tried to preach why Google sharing your browsing history with ad partners is bad, but most of my friends don't seem to care. :(
It's frustrating, I get it too. Nobody cares until the leopard bites their face. Then it's too late, and we're all affected by their indifference/laziness/ignorance.
I'm probably going to get downvotes for this, but I seriously don't understand why you care whether other people care. If you don't like Chrome and it's approach to privacy, don't use it. But man am I sick of people being so preachy about it. Just make your own choices and stop forcing your choices on others yeesh.
That is the whole point - your indifference screws us all. We ALL end up with no choice!
