What is a Chrome-based browser? Isn't Chrome Google's Chromium based browser? How many are based on Chrome?

  From "The Attack: How it works", its just checking the user agent string: function a() { return "undefined" != typeof window && window && "node" !== window.appEnvironment; } function s() { return window?.navigator?.userAgent?.indexOf("Chrome") > -1; } if (!a() || !s()) return;

      A lot of people mistakenly refer to Chromium-based browsers as being Chrome-based. I feel like this is obvious and you know that this is the exact mistake being made, but rather than drop an actual correction, you take the insufferable approach of pretending you don't know what's happening and forming the correction as a question.

        > A lot of people mistakenly refer to Chromium-based browsers as being Chrome-based This seems to be a case where the poison seeps through the cracks. From Google and Chrome to other Chromium-based browsers. In very correct ways, in this case, they are Chrome based.
