Chrome is one of the first things I disable on my Android devices, and I hate the idea of signing up for any accounts just to access local files.

But Canon welcomed me with a big surprise, and a fuck you, too!

    The Canon app calls on the Chrome app to be there. It’s more than just the user agent, unfortunately.

      So Chrome is sharing way more than the user agent with Canon? That’s just ridiculous. I hope someone with the time will take a good look about what information is being sent.

        All I can say is that it would NOT work unless I also turned off my system wide adblocker (AdGuard).

        For sure they are doing some shady shit.
