The ungoogled Chromium 147.0.7727.55-1 release enhances privacy by redirecting connections to Google domains to non-existent alternatives, effectively blocking telemetry and forcing users to rely on third-party security tools for malware protection. This update removes Safe Browsing functionality, but introduces new flags that allow advanced users to customize their search behavior and disable the Omnibox provider without needing additional extensions. The build process also incorporates community patches to maintain high performance while trimming unnecessary binaries to create a smaller installation footprint. Users should be aware that some websites may behave differently due to the absence of Google tracking

Ungoogle Chromium 147.0.7727.55-1 released

This ungoogled chromium release forces connections to Google domains into dead ends using domain substitution so telemetry stays strictly offline. Users should expect Safe Browsing functionality to vanish entirely since security is now left up to third-party tools rather than built-in checks. New flags let enthusiasts customize search behavior or disable the Omnibox provider without installing extensions for every tweak. The build process strips unnecessary binaries and borrows patches from Iridium to keep performance high while maintaining a smaller footprint on disk.
