Read why “Web Environment Integrity” is terrible, and why we must vocally oppose it now. Google’s latest maneuver, if we don’t act to stop it, threatens our freedom to explore the Internet with browsers of our choice.

    It’s pretty key to the internet that you can access websites using any web browser or configuration you’d like, though.

    While it’s true that some websites could just be avoided, if any government, education or healthcare websites implement this “for security”, the user will be forced to download and use a verified browser.

    In my opinion this proposal strips users of their freedoms and should be canned.
