Use Firefox.

This is the easiest problem to solve.

Switch to Firefox, be happy.

Who gives a fuck? Just stop using chrome

There was a time not too long ago where I would have just assumed a move this clearly douchey and against your customers' desires would lead to nothing but a complete evacuation of those customers, but I've seen this movie play out enough times to know that somehow, someway, this will work out just fine for them. People will complain, swallow it whole, keep on using it, and finally just forget about it.

Two current best forks of FF for a discerning customer.

Add uBlock to hurt ad tech

That's why I don't use chrome.

The amount of disconnect with reality in the comments on this is / will continue to be hilarious

New? This is years in the working.

Literally told people to expect this if they keep using chrome and now they are in disbelief, more so when I send them the screen cap of me telling them to expect it.

But why would an ad company want to block ad blockers? That makes no sense...

Chrome is shit. Never liked it and only use it at work.

That alone would be why it's good if they had to sell it.

The only issue with forcing them to sell it is Mozilla will lose most of its income stream. Hopfully selling it causes much branching making it harder to target firefox in making websites uncompatable.
