The Chrome Canary in the coal mine just went silent, as uBlock Origin and other Manifest V2 extensions can no longer be re-enabled via flags

    I suspect this will soon be followed by a renewed effort by google to kill firefox compatability.

      Have you looked at the market share of Firefox lately? Why even waste time on that?

      So you will need to have a backup browser to use only Google services and everything but Google search blocked in ff

        Its not google services i worry about ive pretty much degoogled everything i can. Its the google bits so deeply embedded into almost every website across the internet. If they implemented some tpm bs into chrome that somehow Verity’s itself with tpm and google servers before it loads anything then that instantly makes a majority of websites juat not work on ff with no fixes backdoors or bypasses. They will try, we have little hope in stopping it, and most people wont even notice let alone give a fuck.
