Read why "Web Environment Integrity" is terrible, and why we must vocally oppose it now. Google's latest maneuver, if we don't act to stop it, threatens our freedom to explore the Internet with browsers of our choice.

Google isn't going to regulate itself. We need our elected officials to enshrine laws that stop this. The EU will likely be the ones pissed off by this.
