There’s no official time frame, so you’ll get different answers. Also, generations are somewhat arbitrary delineations that are defined by things other than age, particularly major events and themes that occurred in early life.

For example, it seems that “millennial” is congealing around 1981-1996, at least according to Wikipedia, but there’s still variance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millenial#Date_and_age_range_definitions

Credentialism. Some doctors treat their staff the same way.

No. There are a whole bag of tactics to get you to enable it like “Whoops, got re-enabled in an update. Our bad.”, which has happened before, or a myriad of dark patterns. By changing the name of this at least twice now when it got backlash from users, Google has shown it doesn’t care about Chrome users’ preferences, only that it wants this to fly under the radar so that every Chrome user won’t know to disable it.

Change to a browser that actually gives a crap about your privacy. As a bonus, changing helps reduce Google’s ability to dictate what happens to the web via Chrome’s huge user base, like the recent “Web Environment Integrity” push.
