How are you supposed to know that the key is right? Does this expect users to verify the domain is correct? The web has shown us that that is a very unreliable process.
Anyone who values capital returns over all other concerns, which seems like a lot of people and companies to me if they thought they could successfully profit off it.
B) I don't believe it has been established that AI output cannot get copyright protection. Are you thinking of the various lawsuits about whther AI itself can be the author for copyright purposes?
There's tons of substitutes, the ban on Halon wouldn't be why Jane St is using water.
Many people (like me) use "halon" when they are talking about general inert gas based fire suppression as there's not really a good short word for them otherwise.
Yeah I didn't read the article in detail. It's the NYC that threw me off. And I didn't feel like it was that weird an concept, after all the real estate in NYC is super premium priced, not exactly prime datacenter country. I'm surprised there are many (like I said 33 Thomas St used to be just a phone exchange which used to be much bigger than they are now due to the mechanical tech involved).
Chrome already has too much power in the browser standards world. The last thing we need is everyone's LLMs to follow Chrome team's guidance on how to do web development. This road leads back to "To view this site, please view in [DOMINANT BROWSER]"
Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge are also contributors to this project, so this is a cross-browser initiative to help improve how agents build for the web.
Edge is Chrom[ium], so that's not very meaningful. It's good that Firefox is at the table, but that table has three seats for Chromium to only one for Firefox, and a de-facto 3/5 majority[1]. And without Safari at the table, you're missing the single most important mobile browser engine (all browsers on iOS, including Chrome).
We would love to have Safari join the project, and we're currently in discussion with them about that. There are also two additional owners seats for independent experts (one of whom is currently filled by Lea Verou).
They back it because they have no choice. We have no real independent browsers in 2026. And it's sad that the fact that we don't have independent browsers is being twisted into proof that Google doesn't have much power.
Both Mozilla and the Google Chrome team are part of the Web Baseline project and this project. They only recommend best practices supported by Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari.
No Netsurf. I guess thats why you also switched off access on google search pages too because unless a browser is bigger than 1G its not a real browser?
