Companies are so removed from what users want, they only focus on what shareholders want to hear and don’t consider that users will hate it.
That’s like a cigarette brand marketing themselves as the most cancer-causing.
Jesus, that escalated quickly…
Is Chrome not doing exactly this?
Ok how long after this browser goes live till we hear it being used by the FBI to track criminals.
And people would voluntarily use this browser …why?
This is really good information, now I know to avoid their browser like the plague.

Srinivas believes that Perplexity’s browser users will be fine with such tracking because the ads should be more relevant to them.

Your personal preferences are only relevant when it comes to targeting you with political propaganda.
Chrome does that already anyway.
