If Google wants to specialize in being a shopping mall with ads, then I am more than happy to use it as such. I don't run ad blockers as I am fine with ads when I'm specifically trying to shop.

Aside from that, I just prefer to not connect my daily driver browser to accounts that I use where privacy isn't a concern for me.
