Chrome now directly tracks users, generates a "topic" list it shares with advertisers.

    Sadly, no, there is no chromecast extension (which I am aware of).

      Actually there is one, but it’s not very good if I’m being honest ( but workable).

      I’m kind of surprised that no open source project of renown has ever decided to implement that on Firefox well.

          Just search for it from within Firefox, from the mods tab. That’s how I found it the first time.

              Don’t know what to say, that’s how I found it.

              I’ll try to remember the next time I am in front of my computer to look it up and post here.
