I would say the Chromecast with Google tv is an impressive bit of kit and it’s not bound to their services.



I'd disagree. The new Chromecast with Google TV requires you to disable privacy settings in order to use basic features on the Chromecast. I had to make a new Google account and enable Web & App History on it just so I could use the device normally.


How does one de-Google a Google Chromecast?


Oh, I suppose you may need a Google account to set up, I didn’t really think about it. I meant that you can use it for most streaming services and it works well.


Hammer?


Can you use it with Firefox?
