If not, it can always be achieved utilizing the following
from DuckDuckGo, https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/duckduckgo-privacy-essent/bkdgflcldnnnapblkhphbgpggdiikppg
I would prefer to see an in-house option than a third party option.

Not I, being a Firefox user - I have steered clear of Chrome for some considerable time.

Vivaldi, Brave and DDG are listed as non-FLoC, no mention of ASB. https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=259266.msg1599972#msg1599972
