+# Disables use of a binary for preloading the Media Engagement index
+# Said binary is: chrome/browser/resources/media/mei_preload/preloaded_data.pb
+# According to media/base/media_switches (for PreloadMediaEngagementData), it
+# "enables a list of origins to be considered as having a high MEI until there
+# is enough local data to determine the user's preferred behavior." This feature
+# does not seem to outweigh the benefit of removing the binary, thus this patch.
