Google could have thought about poor Firefox before destroying it perhaps. The story of Chrome is sad: started as a minimalistic super fast fork of WebKit, ending as a bloated, resource-intensive, privacy-free tracking tool https://blog.google/outreach-initiatives/public-policy/doj-search-remedies-nov-2024/

Considered in the abstract terminating a single developer account doesn’t violate the DMA, but clearly, if Apple terminated the dev account of every potential third-party app store, that would be a violation, even if the law says nothing about that scenario explicitly. And the EU considers Apple, not epic, to have unclean hands, regardless of what US courts have said. So the question is how the EC sees Apple’s move against Epic. I hope risking 10% of GLOBAL revenue was worth it, Apple.

Good piece from @jasonkoebler but this quote gives me pause. Let's not look to advertisers to be civic-minded. The best argument is that all this stuff is pointless and the things they're trying to avoid don't harm their brands. Probably right. But if it's not, the problem is advertising per se not individual advertisers failing to be good citizens https://www.404media.co/advertisers-dont-want-sites-like-jezebel-to-exist/
