In Chrome we've been working on what I think is a pretty cool new web API called DBSC. It'll help mitigate a threat that's actually outside of Chrome's traditional threat model, but one that my team has focused heavily on in recent years -- cookie theft from local malware. DBSC wil let you replace long-lived bearer tokens in cookies with a session that's bound to the device so it can't be stolen.

Thanks to @adetaylor, Comprehensive Rust  now has a course on how to add #rust to #chromium!

You can read the new section here: https://google.github.io/comprehensive-rust/chromium.html

If you do the final exercise, you will end up with a browser that speaks funny! 😀

Like the Rust in Android course, this is mostly relevant to the engineers who work on Chromium itself. Others are welcome to play along, but you should already know how to build Chromium.
