Google executives want this, NOT the engineers.
Their engineers are super fucking shady too. For example, the issies with the WebHID "browser" APIs
And you think it was the engineer’s idea to do that?
There's literally a comment from an Google engineer, about WebHID saying that they had engineers "motivated to execute on" as part of their reasoning for telling others to go fuck themselves.
Guess who's opinion matters here?
They put their name on it. I hope it was monetary worth it because the public should not cut them any slack.
