Quote from: NikoB on April 11, 2024, 13:09:31I already wrote that all these pathetic attempts by the Mozilla team are useless. They cannot offer the same powerful ecosystem as Google. They can't even offer a normal experience on YouTube because Google deliberately blocks other browsers from working properly there. As soon as you launch Chrome, everything miraculously starts working on YouTube without delays or freezes...
We should have fought the monster earlier, 15-20 years ago. It's too late now...
It was necessary to create an alternative ecosystem for their browser, but they slept through it.
Here is a work that proves that the owners of Google, with the connivance of corrupt officials and the stupid population, have taken over the entire market using openly criminal methods:

It doesn't matter if Google is too big. A monopoly shouldn't be permitted to exist. This is what the EU is seemingly realising now (I agree, it is a little late, though.). So, I'll take what I can get. There need to be options for people who don't want to sell their souls to Google. I never used to care, but in my old age, I'm becoming more wary of privacy invasion and the threat of monopolies to the things I enjoy.
