Google is such a good company, one the best. Everybody says it. I was just talking to John Google the other day, and he tells me, no really he did, he tells me we're going to do amazing things together. Oogles of googles. That's what we'll sell. Everybody will know about google by this time next year. It's true.
God damnit.
What if Linux foundation buys Chrome?
They already have Servo.
HA!
What a joke.
Lit. It's a good ask although it's not clear what separation means here. Not going to hold my breath, the big corpos seem to usually win these kind of games.
Chrome is now owned by a separate conpany with the same major stock holders.
It's like they're a company pretending to be another company, disguised as another company. Tropic Thunder all the way down.
Chrome is now owned by a company, owned by a company, owned by another company, that is owned by Google.
And even in the case where there is actual separation, and competition, it will only be temporary!
Rad. Do Microsoft next.
If you're talking about edge browser, edge is chrome.
Ew. So if someone likes their girlfriend to tie them up and edge them, that means they enjoy a breach of privacy, and getting google involved?
Google does like to watch.
What's to stop them just making another browser?
They didn't make the first one! They got it from Apple, who themselves got it from KDE.
Not needed. Internet Explorer existed for years after the 90s. It wasn't killed by the courts. It was killed by the fact that it's only function was to install a better browser on first boot.
I think you are severely underestimating how many people don’t even understand the difference between windows, explorer, a web browser and even the Internet itself during the 90’s well into the 2000’s even 2010’s.
That’s who kept IE alive
With blackjack and hookers?
I'm 40% internet browser.
Potentially.
This is probably the real reason corporate America had no interest in endorsing Harris.
Ugh. Just link to Reuters.

I think the common practice is to link to the original in the URL bar and then use the body text to do paywall/loginwall removals.
