no thanks, I like “risky” browsing. Never liked that Firefox implemented that Google feature.

Agree, in Vivaldi was the first thing I desactivated in the settings. It’s nothing what an good ad/trackerblocker also do (uBO, or the inbuild one in Vivaldi, it also blocks the access to phising or badware pages)

I can only speak for me, not for others. I have put this information for users who use browsers where the Google “Save” Browsing API cannot be disabled and for those who use Google anyway. This way at least they know that they have one Spyware less, if this information is true (at least in the EU)
