    The real crime here is downloading Chrome.

    Firefox, for privacy protection.

      Ungoogled Chromium requires so much work to be usable, on top of having no built-in updater. That’s a really bad recommendation. Have you looked at the steps to even install widevine? You even have to open up chrome flags to manually install an addon that lets you install add-ons.
