Ungoogled Chromium is a free and open-source variant of the Chromium web browser that removes all Google-specific web services. It achieves this with a series of patches applied to the Chromium codebase during the compilation process. The result is functionally similar to regular Chromium.
It's functionalities include:
* Disabling functionality that requires Google domains, including Google Safe Browsing.
* Replacing Google web domains in the Chromium source code with non-existent web domains and blocking internal requests to those domains.
* Removing binary blobs from the Chromium source code and replacing them with custom alternatives.
* Adding several (40+) new flags to change Chromium behavior that is otherwise unconfigurable.
Some Chromium features do not work on ungoogled-chromium by default. For example, installing extensions directly from the Chrome Web Store requires its own extension.
