Turd FergIf you're forced to use Chrome, what ad blocker do you use?
mrnobodyWho forces you to use Chrome? I block Chrome at our org, lock down Edge pretty well with GPOs, and run Firefox as the 2nd browser of choice. I monitor/track as little as possible.
Plenty of government organisations where i am block other browser to reduce their attack surface area.
I can never understand why they default to ‘edge’ and chrome though…
So, funny you say that. We’re not a big company, we had a very old 100Mbs connection up into a few years ago, and with TBs of data we could never fully backup anything offsite. Sooo many other services trying to eat up bandwidth, it was a joke. I installed a couple Piholes and pointed AD DNS to them and adblocking made such a difference while browsing!! Surprisingly, Pi 3B handled 1m queries in 24 hr periods without breaking a sweat!
Edge and Chrome at very GPO friendly to lock stuff down for businesses. I do the same thing on purpose for security. Funnily enough I’ve got a couple users who hate big brother type stuff, very anti gov, conspiracy guys. I told them to get of Google and was stopped short to blab on about how Chrome is the best, etc. Fudds… Gave them a nice updated education on corporate overreach and they use Firefox and Ecosia now lol.
I like to have options, and I tend to send best practice emails out with read receipts cuz I know most of them don’t know how to ignore them. 🤓
