At work we use Google Apps and I sign in as with my work address for Gmail, Calendar, Docs, Drive, etc. and am used to one click access to all these apps. But I like to sync my bookmarks, extensions and settings to my personal account - and that&amp;#x27;s it - I don&amp;#x27;t want to sign in to my personal Gmail, Docs, Drive in the browser. The new Chrome not only forces me to, but it now makes my personal account the primary one (&amp;#x2F;u&amp;#x2F;0 for Gmail) and forces me to go through several clicks for other apps to change accounts. And they didn&amp;#x27;t even ask before pushing this - one fine day Chrome auto updated and forced this feature on me and it took several days and a lot of signing out&amp;#x2F;in deleting cookies, posting on groups, etc. to figure out the flags workaround.&lt;p&gt;I know the following is not welcome on HN, but I have to vent somewhere folks that think this was a good idea are reading, so here it is: A big fuck you to Chrome for forcing this feature on us!</text><parent_chain><item><author>tedivm</author><text>I don&amp;#x27;t understand why the Chrome team is picking this hill to die on- their team (managers and developers) are all over twitter and reddit trying to explain the privacy violations away as if the people upset about this are just not understanding what&amp;#x27;s going on.&lt;p&gt;I really expect this change to push a lot of people away from Chrome, and frankly I wouldn&amp;#x27;t be surprised if it started opening up more antitrust possibilities due to how they&amp;#x27;re using their browser to give their services special functionality others can&amp;#x27;t get.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Am I logged in or not?

This change resulted in the deletion of Chrome from my computer and a move to FF with Multi Account Containers set to segregate various services from each other.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m half thankful for the Chrome team doing this because it was just the push I needed to finally rid myself of Chrome once and for all.&lt;p&gt;I plan to do a clean re-install of the OS on my Mac as well to ensure that all vestiges of Google Chrome are indeed gone. I also took the opportunity to rid myself of Google Drive File Stream.</text><parent_chain><item><author>tedivm</author><text>I don&amp;#x27;t understand why the Chrome team is picking this hill to die on- their team (managers and developers) are all over twitter and reddit trying to explain the privacy violations away as if the people upset about this are just not understanding what&amp;#x27;s going on.&lt;p&gt;I really expect this change to push a lot of people away from Chrome, and frankly I wouldn&amp;#x27;t be surprised if it started opening up more antitrust possibilities due to how they&amp;#x27;re using their browser to give their services special functionality others can&amp;#x27;t get.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Am I logged in or not?
