Ya, it’d still be huge for Firefox, but what I’m really getting at is that even with this change, Chrome is going nowhere. They’re the big fish, they can afford to make these kinds of changes, because the people who care are a very small minority.

If coos don't want to their they shouldn't get paid.

I think this should be “If COOs don’t want to work there, they shouldn’t get paid”.

Or are getting somewhere else

No idea on this bit. Maybe “or should get a job somewhere else”?

The uBlock Origin chrome extension ~~has~~ had 34 million users. Chrome has 3.45 billion users.

Even if every uBlock user switched, it’s less than 1% of chrome users.

A computer: does anything.

Tech journalists: is this AI?

If you're looking for something you can carry about and use to store data on, why not just a USB-C thumb drive or external SSD?

Edit; this is intended for photographers, but you can get external SSDs that create their own WiFi network so you can transfer files wiressly to and from them: https://www.westerndigital.com/en-gb/products/portable-drives/wd-my-passport-wireless-ssd?sku=WDBAMJ2500AGY-EESN

It's not necessarily about a threat to instances or users. It's more an issue with how Meta could potentially hijack the protocol the whole thing is built on, and do damage in the long run. There's a write up here on how similar things have happened in the past;
