       Google's Chrome browser is now a thin candy shell of browser interface around a full-time surveillance engine and personal data monetization machine. Find a better browser, folks. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/09/googles-widely-opposed-ad-platform-the-privacy-sandbox-launches-in-chrome/

       Also, this is not an example of the tech marketplace "working" through consumer selection. Asking folks to independently assess the privacy implications of the technologies they use is only efficient from the tech companies' perspective.

       Unfortunately, constant (yet justified) warnings about privacy harms can lead some people to throw up their hands and go full privacy nihilist, which is what tech CEOs like McNealy, Schmidt, and Zuckerberg were all wishcasting when they claimed that "privacy is dead."

       Privacy implications are largely opaque to most people, which is why we need non-preemptive, comprehensive privacy legislation/regulation that allows for private rights of action.
