For people who want an opinionated browser... Yes. They have sponsored shortcuts which cannot be disabled and they ghost out the option to in the settings. If you want to dig around the about:config and tweak things, fine, but I'd rather use a browser I can make my own. Librewolf is excellently bare bones.

Life is just good enough where most people don't care as much, because their frame of reference is the one small bad act that just happened. Bad things progressing slowly over time is the strategy of fascists. Most people don't realize what has been lost, they largely only remember when it affects them personally. The goalposts have been incrementally moving, shifting chaos into normalcy. As long as things get worse slowly, most people won't notice. Social media has only exacerbated the short attention spans of the masses.

The planet's climate is catastrophically changing, dictatorships are emerging all over the world and even in your own country, and a few rich assholes literally own everything, but god forbid, we can't stop working or scrolling Tiktok.

"CEO says" journalism. Gives these morons so much attention.

I'd like to say just snap any antennae in the vehicle. Or, Faraday cage it. Or if you're really creative custom car OS. TempleOS comes to mind.

Both. There's a difference between showing some clerk your ID compared to uploading it to the internet. It's not a question of if it being hacked. It will be. Denial of this is dangerous. If you don't see this as important, you're desensitized by the sheer number of yearly cyber attacks.

And that's only the start. Children will only be marginalized. Protected groups will be increasingly threatened. Take your pick on whatever organization you want to look at, and they'll say this doesn't help anyone, except maybe foreign adversaries and hacking groups. What happens when the next government comes along and decides to make a more US kind of implementation? The point is, that we should not make this the precedent. Ever. Kick it while it's down.

Explain basically every privacy, cyber security and child safety organization saying this is a bad idea, then.
