Google is deliberately making adblocking and privacy enhancements difficult by reducing programming options on the chromium project.

On contrary, firefox collaborates with extension developers like [uBlock](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock) and other projects trying to enhance privacy on the web.

Google is trying its hardest to eliminate firefox from the market since firefox is the only other free multiplatform alternative to chromium. They have successfully eliminated Microsoft Edge HTML from the market and now edge uses chromium.
