Google has warned owners of Windows and Mac computers to urgently update their Chrome internet browser after learning that hackers may have exploited a mystery bug that has existed since its launch.
Justin Schuh, Chrome’s security engineer chief warned users to update Chrome “like right this minute” on Twitter, declaring it a “#PSA [Public Service Announcement]”.
The company shared a blog post in which it said an update that should fix the vulnerability, which it described as “high” in severity, had already been issued on March 1. It is up to users to update their browser.

Well, that's one reason my daily driver is Pale Moon (I remember the firing for leftist virtue-signaling), but I keep Opera and Brave on my toolbar for some tasks as well. I wouldn't use spyware like Chrome or MS-whatever with several of my guns pointed at my head.
