Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible
#politics #monopoly #democracy #feudalism
Google is PURE EVIL.
It isn't just "make ad-blocking (near) impossible" as the current title of the submission suggests. It is:
Make browsing the internet possible only on Chrome, Safari or Edge (with no modifications or extensions). No competition allowed in browsers.
Make browsing the internet possible only on macOS, Windows, Android or iOS (no custom Android distributions, definitely no LineageOS or GrapheneOS or whatever). No competition allowed in Operating Systems, especially no open source operating systems.
Make crawling the internet possible only to Google. No private crawling and no competing search engines.
Make browsing the internet possible only on CPUs allowed by Apple, Microsoft, Google. So no RISC-V just yet, and even when RISC-V will be supported by them: No competition allowed in CPU.
Make browsing the internet possible only on SoCs allowed by Apple, Microsoft, Google. No competition allowed in SoC.
Make browsing the internet possible only on form factors approved by Apple, Microsoft, Google. So no calculator with a web browser. No competition allowed in form factor.
Make browsing the internet possible only on UX approved by Apple, Microsoft, Google. So backtracking 10 years ago, when Android made documents-oriented web browser (= each tab appears just like a standalone app in recent apps), that would have been abuse of that position. No competition allowed in UX.
