Nice comic. I like that it mentions that Google Assistant won't work without app and search history enabled. I discovered a few years ago that it wouldn't even do simple arithmetic without it. That's when I started degoogling myself (!degoogle@lemmy.ml).

It would also help in general if Firefox didn't make a habit of kneecapping itself by making changes that piss off its userbase.
