@Tutanota Time to change to Linux
@MokhtarStork @Tutanota As long as you still use Google Chrome on any OS, there's a chance of this happening again. I'd recommend using Cromite, Ungoogled Chromium or Helium instead. Hell, just drop the Chromium monopoly altogether and use LibreWolf, Mullvad Browser or Waterfox.
On Android, I'd recommend Cromite, Ironfox, Fennec, or Iodé.

So far so good! I'll keep a watch out for it.
As for Claude desktop - why would anyone install that anyway? -

@mast0d0nphan @Tutanota I NEVER used Google Chrome; Never will use Facebook again. My laptop is now Linux. Why? Can't stand 'electronic bugs'.

@The_Universality @Tutanota They want to crash all local devices so they can sell us AI-slop cloud laptops that we don't control.
Google's new motto: YOU WILL OWN NOTHING AND YOU WILL BE HAPPY! ALSO WE'RE TOTALLY EVIL!

Rather, provide the European ‘browser-choice’ like feature.
And Apple .. should provide their own model as well, and bè a competitor on their own (branded?) platform. -
