I am sick and fucking tired of Google asking me if I want Google Chrome.

The answer is a resounding "fuck no!"

No, Google, I don't want a browser that will hijack my computer. It's ridiculous. I'll take Firefox or something equivalent every time.

Does anyone know how to stop Google from asking this question over and over again?

Mother friggin' annoying.

Stop using Google? Moved to DuckDuckGo a while back and haven't looked back.

That said, big data knows about all the grumble I've ever watched. I'm just hoping when the pornogeddon big reveal comes we're all terrible dirty bastards and no one will care about anything between consenting adults.

Really? I switched to DuckDuckGo a few years back since google seems to be in bed with the NSA, but it very simply was not half the search engine that google was at the time. I do despise google for that reason, however.

I also flipped over to the Tor Browser for a while as well because I love its anonymity and the fact that (at the time) I may have been helping the Arab Spring uprise action going on in Northern Africa and Middle East and made my computer available for the relays that allow for folk like that to operate without Big Brother watching.

But with Tor browser, I probably developed a very unhealthy curiosity in the DarkWeb/DeepWeb and Tor allows you to go to those Dark Web websites that are not at all available via Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, etc. But again, the browser ain't exactly as user friendly as most and since I'm not trying to overthrow the government (or order up a hit man or purchase an eastern european prostitute, etc.), so I decided to simply go back to Firefox.

Anyhoo, has DuckDuckGo improved much?

... and here I thought it was going to say "if Wounded Bear is still searching for Wounded Twinks"

Not that there's anything wrong with that!

interestingly enough, our network admins request we opt for Google Chrome for our work e-mail

as for getting it to stop asking you to be assimilated, I dunno since I am part of the collective (at work anyway)

at home I use Firefox, but then go to Google mail and I don't recall it asking me to convert to Chrome ... maybe it knows I am already on it at work?

Why would I do a Google search on "Wounded Twinks?" I already know how to find you.

Ah, bigoted humor.....but, to be fair, that's clever for guys like you.

No, Google Mail or GMail doesn't ask that question. As a matter of fact, I have GMail.

But when you go to Google search and it brings up the results, invariably there is a large pop up that comes up in the upper right corner and asks me if I would like to sign up for Google Chrome. And I don't because I did have Google Chrome at one time and it basically hijacked my computer much like the old Norton Antivirus used to.

But you don't get that pop up when you perform a google search and the search results come up?

I can’t say that I’ve ever been asked to switch to Chrome either. But I use Apple products so that may have something to do with it.

It's not bigoted! A "Bear" in the LGBT community can often times be described as a larger, hairer homosexual male. Often times, those "Bears" are seen with "Twinks", a young looking gay man with little to no hair; ergo, Wounded Bears and Wounded Twinks.

No bigotry here, we love everyone in the LGBT and heterosexual communities.
