Google is killing yet another useful (paid!) service [Archive.is] Kristian Köhntopp on Twitter: “Google wants to cancel Google Music, in favor of Youtube Music. Meanwhile Youtube Music is killing my playlists by removing titles left and right. This is a trash fire. So there is Spotify. What else exists?… “

Blocking persons (for instance for sending you materials that in G+ would be a T.O.S. violation) is only possible by blocking them, not by reporting them.
Most hangouts users however do have a G+ account, so you can request a block there.
Relevant links:
If you don’t feel comfortable in a Hangout with someone, you can block them. When you block someone, they can see that you’re online but can’t send you Hangouts messages.
Tip: If you are contacted by strangers or spammers, choose who can contact you directly.
You can see your conversations, invites and contacts. Contacts that are online are at the top of the list with a green circle on their photo.
…
Let people contact you without an invite.
If you see something on Google+ that violates our User Conduct and Content Policies, you can report it. Violations might include: Bullying, threatening, or harassing someone Hate speech …

Somehow Firefox is available on ARM by default, but the crash recovery isn’t that awesome.
On my list of things to try is Chrome or Chromium. These links should help me find out if this is possible at all:

So I wondered why on some tabs, the bookmark bar would never disappear:
Chrome’s default new tab page (NTP) always shows a bookmark bar, even if you turn it off for other pages. You can however install browser extensions which replace the NTP, and the replacements do not automatically get the bookmarks bar (but can with some extra programming).
So for instance Google’s Earth View extension does not show bookmarks, whereas Pinterest’s now does.
Thanks deltab for answering this at [WayBack] google chrome – How to hide the bookmark bar? – Super User

Hopefully by now the extensions below still work, as Google removed the “View Image” button in Google Image Search a few years back.
When not: these might help finding an updated method (:

Google’s image-based search engine has been a staple of the internet for more than a decade. But this morning it got a little less useful: in addition to making the reverse image search tool harder to find, the “Show Image” button has disappeared.
