Firefox is FOSS. Just use a privacy oriented fork of it :)

So say I'm dumb and don't know how to find a fork like that...

I would search “Firefox forks for privacy” or something like that

how many people will do this though? most people don't even bother switching away from chrome...

That’s fine. My goal is not to evangelize people and force everyone to use he same thing. A lot of people will stick to chrome, and other people will use Firefox, and even smaller subset will use privacy oriented forks of Firefox. Get this mf some diversity.

the benefits of it only come around if a bunch of people are doing it.

whats bad about this is google's monopoly and influence over the market, not individual people's preferences.
