Ungoogled Chromium is a modified version of Chromium that has no Google integration or tracking. If you have ever used Iridium or any other private Chromium-based web browser you will likely like this option. The platform has removed many Google components, such as the URL tracker, Google Hotwording, Google Cloud Messaging, the Google Host Detector, and so on.
With each Google update, users grab their heads thinking about their privacy. But with Ungoogled Chromium, you can feel secure with regard to Google's invasion in your browser.
Main features of Ungoogled Chromium
- Function disabled by default: Google URL Tracker, Google Hotwording, Google Host Detector, Google Cloud Messaging.
- The opening of pop-up windows will be done in new tabs, instead of a separate window.
- No Google session will be started in the browser.
- Google Safe Browsing will be disabled.
- The intranet redirect detector is disabled by default.
- Automatically prevents any URL with "TLD qjz9zk" from making a connection.
- New command-line codes (you will find them on its GitHub page).
- Option to delete HTTP authentication cookies from More Tools.
- You can choose to disable the search function in the Omnibox. The address bar will only work for URLs.
How to use Ungoogled Chromium?
Using Ungoogled Chromium is the same as Chrome. That is, without Google's interference, but enjoying its well-known interface. The feature we highlight from the browser is the possibility to disable the address bar as a search tool (if you disable the Omnibox).
If you want to remove the integration and Google trackers from Chrome, but keep its interface, Ungoogled Chromium really offers us a very good solution in its portable and installable version.
