Mini Mods - Block Google's CHROME-Browser

This Modification blocks all visitors using Google's CHROME-browser from your vBulletin.

Those users get a message in their Google-Browser that they should use any other browser and come back

Google still haven't secretly destroyed this mod yet? Wow.
Here's a thought: What if this mod was made BY Google to investigate all who don't like their browser.
Then in a few months time, early on a Sunday morning, men in black suits and sunglasses will come to your house and take you to a mental conditioning facility.

Don't worry, I have not changed to the dark side

Maybe I offer the rights of this AddOn to Google, they pay 1.000.000$ for it and then can delete it here



btw I will do a v2.0 with custom text and maybe some "global / per forum" switch ... we'll see

[cosy]

this will make happy many ppl especially who get baned from adsense

Is there anychance I could twist your arm and get you to include one for the opera browser? Thanks again, Nice work.

What's the fuss with Chrome and data collection or rights ?
They amended the EULA days after it was released.

Chrome is not collecting any more data than a browser that has the Google toolbar installed with the default options and cookies set to allow.

Remember that Chrome is still Beta.
Why deny people access to your site via ANY browser ?

When Google launch their operating system, is everyone going to block that as well . LMAO

EDIT**
Should have mentioned that anyone can circumvent this MOD by changing the useragent string in Chrome. Yes it's possible.

I just saw this and am not going to read all 8 pages, but I do have one question.

Why would you block this browser if the privacy is the end-user's concern, and therefore personal choice? They're the ones using the browser not you (forum owner).

Unless it was already mentioned/clarified in one of the 8 pages, someone please enlighten me. This mod appears to be nothing but senseless paranoia.

Google Chrome is a joint project between Google and the National Security Agency. It's part of the Bush administration's war on terror.

If the word "jihad" should ever come up in your Google Chrome browser, it immediately sends a page off to the Super-NOC at the NSA, where a joint task force including members of the NSA, DOD, SS, and WalMart store security, will review your browsing history in detail.

They then take that browsing history and cross reference it with every Al Queda tape that was ever submitted to Al Jazeera television. Then they cross reference that information with re-runs of "Married with Children" as part of an ongoing investigation against Al Bundy, and whether or not he is related to Al Queda, or Al Jazeera.

For more information, see "chrometruth.org"

...or, it could just be a new friggen browser with a typo in the first release of the license agreement. :erm:

I spent 20 minutes reading this thread, and typing this response. These are minutes of my life that I will never, ever get back. I will now have a moment of silence in remembrance of those 20 minutes, and their unfortunate demise. Poor minutes, they never had a chance.
