The much maligned “Trusted Computing” idea requires that the party you are supposed to trust deserves to be trusted, and Google is DEFINITELY NOT worthy of being trusted, this is a naked power grab to destroy the open web for Google’s ad profits no matter the consequences, this would put heavy surveillance in Google’s hands, this would eliminate ad-blocking, this would break any and all accessibility features, this would obliterate any competing platform, this is very much opposed to what the web is.

    The government won’t regulate big tech if that doesn’t give them any benefit. Governments want to control big tech to gain more power.

      Governments like the EU do not just regulate to gain power. No need to spread disinformation just so you can be more pessimistic.
