Google's browser not only got new chrome, it now also uses keeps track of all websites you visit to generate a topic list for ads that is shared with websites directly. Nobody asked for that.

Was it ever any surprise that Google will do what it wants with Chromium?

Is this being baked into Chromium itself or just Chrome? If it's Chromium itself I guarantee you a lot of the various third-party Chromium browsers are going to jump ship, or remove that from their builds.
