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.

      Yandex? Because the Russians are so so very trustworthy. Pass.

      You have a source on your DDG statement? All I found was from last year with Microsoft trackers being allowed, which has since been remedied. I got no problem with abandoning them for something better, btw. I’m checking out Yandex now.
