Scary shit. An aside: what are people using for tap filters? Is Brita still the go-to company, or are there other better solutions?

Pur supposedly filters out a greater percentage of many different solutes than the standard Brita, but it looks like Brita came out with a new filter that does better than their old one. A longer discussion: https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-water-filter-pitcher/
Tap filters like Brita decrease quality of tap water, at least here in Germany. They are quickly contaminated with bacteria and microbes.
Pur filters produce water that tastes better than Brita. From hard country well-water to harsh chlorine city water, Pur tastes markedly better for me.
