I just got this popup while playing New vegas. I don’t even use chrome, i’ve switched to firefox. How can this be allowed? Also, this is Win10

      It is illegal - they’ve already been taken to court and lost over similar practices 20 years ago.

      It’s just not enforced anymore - and that’s why they’re doing it.

        They were taken to court for bundling a previously paid product (a browser) into their OS for free.
