I dont mean chromium in itself, there is a fork of chrome which removes the google code specifically.

I might refrain from posting this type of stuff again as it can be annoying when someone only concentrate on a bit that annoys them.

If you googled "chromium fork remove google code" you would have found it though.

First hit from the search.


thanks for the time to explain it properly instead of blanketing it under chromium :)
