How to Install Ungoogled Chromium on Windows, macOS and Linux – Guide
Chromium is the open source engine and framework from which Google Chrome is derived. Ungoogled Chromium is a stripped-down version of Chromium that does not have any dependencies on Google’s web services. ..
This feature completely eliminates the need to “call home” to Google servers – something even regular Chromium does. For example, “Safe Browsing” sends data about the websites you visit to Google to ensure that those websites are “safe”. This one feature sounds good, but if you follow your standard internet safety checklists, you’ll be pretty good at avoiding obviously “unsafe” sites. The privacy issue with a “Safe Browsing” web search is that Google feeds the G-Machine free information. You can bet they record what websites you visit, when you visit them, how often you visit them, etc.
