Even if bigs exists to work around what Google is doing, that isn’t the right way forward. If people don’t agree with Google move, the only correct course of action is to ditch Chrome (and all Chromium browsers). Hit them where it hurts and take away their monopoly over the future direction of the web.

I switched to Firefox and it's been wonderful. I wonder why I didn't switch earlier. It's only been a couple of months, but I can't imagine going back to a browser without multi-account containers.

Multi-account containers are brilliant. I recommend the following extensions:

    * uBlock Origin
    * Privacy Badger
    * Multi-Account Containers
    * Flagfox
    * Cookie Autodelete

Extensions are potential sources of future vulnerabilities. The less the better.

If you choose Firefox, you can take advantage of the security vetting extensions must go through to become one of their recommended extensions.
