The much maligned "Trusted Computing" idea requires that the party you are supposed to trust deserves to be trusted, and Google is DEFINITELY NOT worthy of being trusted, this is a naked power grab to destroy the open web for Google's ad profits no matter the consequences, this would put heavy surveillance in Google's hands, this would eliminate ad-blocking, this would break any and all accessibility features, this would obliterate any competing platform, this is very much opposed to what the web is.

@TheYang Exactly! Came here to say this. Everybody actively using chromium based browsers is a part of the problem.

Stop with this excuse and stop Insulting people. I've been on Firefox for nearly 20 years, but Mozilla has ruined it for me little by little. The last straw has been the horrible UI redesign. So I switched to a Chromium browser. Tell Mozilla to make a better browser and to listen to their community, instead of blaming people for using what serves them best.

What does your UI gripe have to do with this biased tabloid piece you shared?

Firefox is fine and works even better than it ever has. If you cared about the UI so much you'd have tried any of its forks that use different and older designs.
