@aral @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I still dont consider this deceptive design. A prompt to reset is perfectly normal in programming, and it would be weird if they did not reset privacy settings with that. Resetting settings is resetting ALL settings. In fact, since resetting is often used for fixing issues you are having in your browser, resetting security settings is a good thing, since some of them can break sites.

Shh! You’re messing up their bizarre soapbox interjection! They want everyone to switch back to chrome because they’d rather Google have access to your data instead
