We know that OSS projects drift into oligarchies and become ossified. When we don't want to just let them die, we can learn from theoretical models of institutional change to understand how to compost the oligarchy and regrow the project from within.

Chrome remains the only browser with no meaningful privacy protection. Worse, it tracks its users in highly deceptive and invasive ways.
What Chrome does is deliver data and eyeballs to Google. Your safety as users is entirely a secondary consideration.
No diligent CISO should allow Chrome to be used except for testing.

Five years ago when the Chrome team announced the Privacy Sandbox, I called a "delaying tactic." Not getting rid of cookies as the first step was never going to work.
Today they announced that they won't be deprecating third-party cookies. That's five years wasted.
