Mocking Google for their totally-not-an-attempt-to-DRM-the-Web is the right thing to do.

Open issues on the proposal repo and let them know what you think.

Politely.

But, don't be fooled. Even if they take this back, it doesn't change how they think. This is their intention. They just failed to slip it by this time.

The answer is to take power away from Google. Stop using their stuff. Build alternatives. It's not easy, but it's the only way.

And mock them. That's always fun.

@chrisg We lost this war the day we allowed big techs have so much power. We lost when we allowed Google to write "standards", we lost when we allowed Chrome to be the most used browser.

I'm very pessimistic about this because only floss community or people in our fedibubble complains about this but the rest of people don't give a shit about what happens and they are going to use chrome and Google's craps even if I tell those things.

I always speak to my friends but I'm just ignored.

@jrballesteros05 It's hard, but i don't think the war is lost. It always looks like that, but remember that the web existed before G and will exist after them.

And "most people" always don't care, about most things. Change happens nevertheless.

@chrisg I will be glad if I'm wrong, believe me. But sadly if most people keep using Chromium based browsers, even if they have no idea about that, Google will do whatever they want with the Internet.

The web existed before G and other techs but they've stolen like TV existed before big conglomerates and they have stolen too.

I see Gemini as breath even though I don't use it.

I hope we still have Web, alternatives to cloud before those companies finish to fuck up everything.
