I always thought it was strange that Google bothered adding so many XSS prevention measures to Chrome when they also happily give UXSS abilities to extension developers, complete with the veneer of trust provided by the Chrome web store.
- FussyZeus 9y ago> veneer of trust provided by the Chrome web store Seriously? Who trusts the Chrome store or the Android store for that matter? If you've ever once submitted an app and seen how loose the security is, I can't see how you'd have any faith in their system.
- cyphar 9y agoYou're viscously agreeing here. "Veneer" means a very thin layer of pretty material on top of cheaper material -- in this context the comment was saying that the trust afforded to Google is skin-deep and is probably unjustified.
- FussyZeus 9y agoAhh you're quite right. Apologies, not enough coffee yet.
