The latest Chrome update comes with new "ad privacy" features which default to "on." I appreciate Google letting me know, but their word choice is all Orwellian backwards-talk. Actually, this gives Chrome permission to share my browsing history, personal interests, and purchase habits with third-party advertisers, as the new default.
Screw. That.
