Displaying raw HTML? Sure a fair number of people can pull that off. Actually rendering HTML+CSS with all their many features and a performant JS engine is many orders of magnitude more complex though, which is why there are basically only three browser engines (two if you count Chromium as a WebKit fork)
Of course, but the original commentor’s claim was that writing a web browser is trivial, not that compiling an existing web browser with some minimal changes is trivial.

Chromium is open source. It would be trivial to build it yourself with the block list disabled.
Then ban open source browsers, duh…
