> Why do we keep moving the goalposts? So it not only needs to be open source but now it needs to be from a non profit The goalposts were never moved. It's a thing that ardent anti-applers do not understand. Google is a web ad agency. 80% of its profits come from web advertisement. At the same time they: - control the browser market - control the search market - fully and utterly dominate web and javascript standards committees, and regularly release features based on their own specs and pretend they are standards See how many conflicts of interest there are? > Why does manpower matter? Chrome releases 40 to 100 new APIs with every release (so, every two months or so)[1]. And these new APIs are immediately taken up as gospel and standard by gullible web devs who now claim that all other browsers need to implement them. This is the question of manpower. So is this: it is absolutely impossible to build a modern web browser [2]. Microsoft, a trillion-dollar company tried and failed, and is now repackaging Chrome, with minor changes. > I wish Apple would either open source Safari WebKit is as open-sourced as Chromium. Safari is as closed source as Chrome.
