@liaizon and to think that people laughed and treated me like a crank when opera switched to chromium and i asked for clearly formulated stances and justifications, because chromium considered malware.

FFS. This is just terrible. One more reason to dump Chrome. Hopefully chromium isn’t poisoned with this shit.

uughh...
surely at least one person on the team implementing this has found themselves evaluating some variation of localStorage.api_key = "SECRET_VALUE_THAT_SHOULDNT_BE_GOING_ANYWHERE"; 🤦

@s_ol @liaizon my best suggestion, the best one i can offer besides not using chrome, would be a helper function to register a {once: true} event which assigns the clipboard to wherever you need it to be (because clipboard can only be read from within a user interaction event last i checked)

@liaizon I’m always wondering why anyone would still use Chrome at all. Why not at least Chromium or something else altogether? I don’t get it.

I fervently believe that the cybersecurity guild should've diagnosed Chrome as a user-friendlier strain of the infamous adware/spyware search toolbars (ask, babylon, etc.).

This is just the syphilitic icing on the AIDS cake.

While I'm at it, what are some good ways to sync bookmarks and browser history across devices these days?
Seems to be the only thing google's Chrome has over the privacy-respecting options.

(not a feature I personally use, but I know people who consider that kinda functionality to be essential)

@liaizon Surely this won't cause people to start putting random shit in their dev console or anything...
