You can check whether there's an option to add to it
In the previous versions i couldn't add it. I will check if i can in the new one.

Iridium still connects to Google at 172.217.24.99......same as previous version. A privacy-conscious browser connecting to Google?
That is privacy today:ROFLMAO:

I am trying Iridium for a few days.
It has Widevine installed and i can watch live streaming.
CPU usage and Ram usage are ok.
Compared to Cent browser performance is about the same but from what i see
Iridium needs to be polished a bit.
As i can see it's a good alternative to Chrome.
If someone needs more control over settings they should use Slimjet, Cent or Yandex

But Widevine belongs to Google.........another privacy issue here? :rolleyes:

Is there an option in Iridium to disable it?

I haven't seen it on extensions but i have seen it in the Iridium folder which is installed in Program Files.
If i am not wrong you disable Widevine through chrome://flags
