      You should really practice reading more if something that long is difficult for you.

      Reading is a crucial life skill that everyone should practice daily.

      TL;DR: If you want to use Chrome then don’t be worried about Topics. It’s better privacy than third party cookies and other tracking methods.

        Within the context of the subject matter, that was a quick excerpt. And, in fact, the transcript from which that excerpt was extracted can probably be considered a relatively quick excerpt from the entire system.

        Sometimes it is just not possible to simplify further or be more concise without just saying “trust me, it’s better than what we had up to now.” That is especially true when we have all learned, I hope, that “trust me, I saw it on the internet” is a really lousy way to make decisions.

            No problem! If that’s as nasty as we ever get, then I’d say we’re doing pretty damn good!

      tl;dr There are valid reasons to not use Chrome, and to be suspicious of Google. This, specifically, is not one of them and the fear is mostly overblown by people who have done zero research.
