They broke my YouTube account a number of years ago in an attempt to force Google+ across their systems and artificially inflate user numbers.

Yesterday I got an email from them saying that they are nuking my Google+.

I will always remember that series of events as one of the most hostile acts of aggression against users that I have ever experienced.

That changed my perspective of Google as a company and I'm not sure that they can ever regain the positive perception that they lost due to those hostile actions.

Now their dominance with Chrome is leading them to make similarly hostile actions: breaking webaudio, attempting to "do away with URLs," forcing unwanted shit on our Internet.

Arrogance is the right word for it.

I don't know why this is downvoted. Seems legitimate to me.

I must have struck a nerve.

I use the Brave browser now. I think other people should too. Downvotes welcome.

I'd rather recommend Firefox. With Brave you're still buying into the Blink/Chromium hegemony.
