    It’s still a problem. I didnt say we had other options right now. But pretending it’s not a problem isn’t going to fix it. Do you really want to rely on those companies for your browser engines? Mozilla is at least an alternative to Google, but a tenuous one. And Microsoft taking over development of either of those isn’t an improvement.

            I think ‘we’ as people who value controlling the software we view the world through should advocate and help fund more alternatives. And that starts by raising awareness. I don’t think fighting with people who point out the issue is a constructive use of anyone’s time.
