Overview of the ChatGPT Chrome Extension
OpenAI recently introduced a new Chrome extension titled ChatGPT Search. However, many users are raising concerns that it behaves more like a search hijacker. This extension alters the default functionality of Chrome’s address bar, redirecting searches through ChatGPT Search instead of allowing users to access their preferred search engines.
The alteration of settings is alarming. Users expect to have direct control over their search preferences. With ChatGPT Search taking over, it diminishes user autonomy. If you’re using this extension, consider the implications on your browsing experience.
