Google Chrome Keystone is modifying /var symlink on non SIP Macs causing k-panic
I&#x27;ve always hated that &quot;service&quot; (more like malware given this news) like everything else that installs itself into the autolaunch sequence without permission, and remove* it whenever I notice&#x2F;remember it, but it keeps coming back whenever I touch Google Chrome, which I prefer not to use in favor of Safari&#x2F;FireFox because of reasons like this.<p>Things like these (including secretly signing you into Search when you sign into YouTube† or refusing to support PiP on iPadOS&#x2F;macOS) just solidify Google&#x27;s image in my mind as a forever scummy, intrusive company that I wish I could leave behind like I did Microsoft, but sadly Google Search and YouTube still don&#x27;t have good enough alternatives yet.<p>* (startup items usually reside in the LaunchAgents&#x2F; and LaunchDaemons&#x2F; folders in your user ~&#x2F;Library&#x2F;, the root &#x2F;Library&#x2F; and &#x2F;System&#x2F;Library&#x2F;)<p>† (you can fix this by deleting all Google cookies after signing into YouTube, on any OS)
