[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 1055316, member: 78686"] Privacy and convenience are usually not interchangeable especially in the case of Google since they give out so many quality products and services for free in exchange of your data. But it's good to know that there's at least one option in the case of sync for users who prefer a more private option. Personally, I'm more on the side of convenience as online privacy is extremely hard to achieve. It's so much extra hard work with very little reward IMO. But it's always important to put some pressure on someone like Google. The more you press the more privacy preserving options they will provide even if not enabled by default. Something is better than nothing. Regarding sync, Chrome's sync is the most stable & problem free unlike Edge's and in some cases Firefox's sync has some hiccups and is not as complete as Chrome.
