What happened to Google Chrome since 2008
It used to be a user friendly lightweight browser.
Now it’s hardly recognizable from its launch. It’s heavy bloated and slurps up user data into invasive user profiles.
Those individual user profiles are rolled up into buckets of collective thoughts ripe for analysis and manipulation.
Can I get this group of people to buy my product? To read my book? To vote the way I want them to? To pay attention to this national issue? To ignore that one?
The instant that Google announced that they were making a browser, it was absolutely guaranteed that it was going to become what it has become. It was only a matter of how long they were going to spend dangling bait before they sprang the trap.
