Yeah I want to know what my topics are and when they change, and if I can disable or fudge my topics.

Not sure if it landed yet, but being able to edit/disable individual topics was an announced feature.

FWIW most ad networks already let you do this. Here's google's https://myadcenter.google.com/home

From the FAQ:

Why can't I block sensitive topics entirely?

We’ll do our best not to show you ads about the topics you limit. In some cases, you might still see an ad containing images related to the topic you’ve limited. For example, you might see an airline ad featuring someone holding a glass of champagne. This isn’t an alcohol ad, even though the ad shows alcohol.

In other cases, you might still see an ad about a topic you’ve limited if you search for info about one of those topics or you watch a video related to those topics.

So I can make suggestions to Google for ads but not truly disable topics.

There is an internal page chrome://topics-internals where you can see the topics but I don't think you can fudge them

There will be some sqlite database that you’ll be able to mess around with, just like the history sqlite database.

You'd figure it would be a pretty easy thing for a fork to just... not implement?

I'll assume they won't be so polite as to allow extension to disable this "feature"

Just as easy for any browser to just not implement third party cookies.
