Ungoogled-chromium: Is there Installation-ID?

Created on 30 Oct 2019  Â·  3Comments  Â·  Source: Eloston/ungoogled-chromium

When checking SRWare Iron, it mentions Installation-ID.
Is it removed here?

PS: features of SRWare Iron:

  • Installation-ID

It gets deleted when Chrome checks first time for updates.If Chrome is received as part of a promotional campaign, it may generate a unique promotion number which is sent to Google on the first run and first use of Google Chrome.

Ungoogled Chromium strives to prevent all unintended communication with Google servers (see key features). That should include all the points in your/SRWare Iron's list and many more.

Furthermore, the whole source code and procedure of how Ungoogled Chromium is generated and compiled is available here and in the platform repos.

SRWare Iron seems to be closed source, their versioning system is unclear, and the link to their privacy statement leads to a website only available in German, which seems very generic and makes no statement about their browser…
