Sign in to what though? That’s what I still don’t understand, I’ve never used a browser that had a mandatory account (except maybe AOL in the 90s but that wasn’t really a browser)…
But of course, downloading Firefox is definitely the right choice. :)
they are claiming that you have to be signed into chrome, the browser, in order to open an incognito window.
yea, it sounds a little crazy. i don’t use chrome, so i can’t confirm that’s the case. i haven’t run into any articles claiming this either, just this post and one other elsewhere awhile back that does.
OK then this is my culture shock because I’ve never “signed in” to a browser in my life. All I want to know is what are people signing in to?
Likely related to that lawsuit they’re dealing with
