Yes, exactly why people think this is creepy. I also expect you not to start using battery rendering shit I haven’t asked you to in the background or data that again you don’t have permission to use. Just because the majority of users don’t care doesn’t mean you gregable are not corrupting the foundation of a free web. I still feel you’re making the web super creepy, grabbing extra data and the whole project focused could be accomplished without this embrace and extend - derank slow pages more aggressively doesn’t lead to a two tier web and doesn’t tie everyone further into Google’s brain washing algorithms. But this “solution” to the problem at least for now Chrome doesn’t visit Google for these new style links from elsewhere so at least that is some improvement. The fact this whole project should not exist and adds zero value and I can’t opt out is a massive problem for me.
