    How is it still a problem for anyone? I haven’t used Google in years and I am unexpectedly still alive

        Are you able to access anything like USB drives? There are portable versions of Firefox you can carry around with you.

            This reminds me of years ago when I was trying to get my grandma off of Internet Explorer.

            The only thing that worked in the end was adding a shortcut to the desktop and changing its icon to IE’s. For a lot of younger people, or older folk who resisted computers until the 2010s, Chrome is the internet, the same way my grandma thought IE was the internet.

        Well let’s say they shouldn’t for many reasons, the most obvious being Google’s systematic push at harvesting every last data about your life. In my country, many schools ban chrome from their devices for this very reason
