Chrome has around 69% market share right now. I'm guessing sites that have easy alternatives would suffer, but more "essential" sites like Amazon or something might be able to have an impact. Obviously consumers would hate this but if it was coordinated among many top sites, it might have an impact. Assuming people don't make Chrome extensions to remove those ugly popups I guess.
- int_19h 6y agoWhat you're saying is that the only entities large enough to break all the things that make the Google market dominance possible, are also large enough that they themselves profit from them immensely.
- ehnto 6y agoYes, I hope the monoliths start fighting and break apart in the scuffle. Amazon sales fall from lack of support of a popular browser, Chrome usage falters because people want to use Amazon, and just a smidge of their respective moat's get filled in such that other companies can have some of the pie back.
- Ygg2 6y agoThat's not a possibility. Amazon would only spite another monolith if it had more to gain than lose.
- ornornor 6y agoI doubt amazon has anything to gain by focusing the conversation on privacy. Or choice, for that matter.
