If Google wants to specialize in being a shopping mall with ads, then I am more than happy to use it as such. I don't run ad blockers as I am fine with ads when I'm specifically trying to shop.
Aside from that, I just prefer to not connect my daily driver browser to accounts that I use where privacy isn't a concern for me.
I switched back to Firefox two or three years ago. It was tough at first but now that I have it setup for me, I like it so much better than Chrome. Very little noise, ad-free most of the time.
Now I only use Chrome when I'm shopping because that's the only thing it's good for.
You forgot the parts about slave labor, unfair market practices and piss poor quality products.
