The much maligned “Trusted Computing” idea requires that the party you are supposed to trust deserves to be trusted, and Google is DEFINITELY NOT worthy of being trusted, this is a naked power grab to destroy the open web for Google’s ad profits no matter the consequences, this would put heavy surveillance in Google’s hands, this would eliminate ad-blocking, this would break any and all accessibility features, this would obliterate any competing platform, this is very much opposed to what the web is.

    Firefox will most likely support this, if it doesn’t want to get cut off from most of the web.

    well, if more people used Firefox websites couldn’t just throw them under the bus, which is why I said it’s so important.
    We’ll have to see, but I’d hope Firefox puts up at least some resistance.
