> whatever they have
That's what is being threatened, other browsers. Google is throwing its weight around to try and enforce browser standards that are bad for a lot of people. Just like with amp.

Apps that try this shouldn't be running on your computer. This is not much safer, it's negligibly safer with a significant cost.

The irony.
- ashtonkem 6y ago> That's what is being threatened, other browsers. Is it? Oauth regularly opens Safari on mobile and Firefox on OS X for me; it's not clear that this move itself is forcing users to chrome per se. If they're blocking non-popular browsers, that's obviously a problem. But if they'll let users open Firefox or Safari, then it seems fairly obvious to me that this is a mistake more than a sinister plan to drive Chrome adoption forward. After all, if they were trying to drive Chrome forward why would they push me more towards Safari?
