Is it really that what's best for the 99% lies the other way? Or is it that Chrome has so many users that there will always be a majority that don't care about

Is it really that what's best for the 99% lies the other way? Or is it that Chrome has so many users that there will always be a majority that don't care about the latest privacy violation Google has forced upon 1/6th of the world population?
When you have 1 billion users, I think it's easy to say that "most of them are better off" with whatever, because there's no possible way that you'll ever have a majority of your 1bn users arguing for or against anything. This is why watchdog organizations exist, and why they're so important.
Doing the "right thing" for 99% of your users isn't actually the right thing if it does harm to your most vulnerable users.
