Nick LockwoodWith Google's latest move to lock down the web (Web Environment Integrity) I'm reminded once again of all the folks who've earnestly tried to assure me over the years that the greatest threat to the open web is actually Apple not allowing 3rd party browser engines on iOS.
rain 🌦️@nicklockwood Apple already shipped remote attestation, requires you to be logged into an Apple ID on an Apple device. Google's proposal is roughly exactly as bad. Google has more market power but also hasn't actually shipped it yet
@nicklockwood The duopoly of Apple and Google is the biggest threat to the open and free web. Their interests diverge often but on DRM and remote attestation they are exactly aligned.
As technologists we have outsized power and we can make Firefox be relevant again. What are we going to do to make that a reality?
