Read why "Web Environment Integrity" is terrible, and why we must vocally oppose it now. Google's latest maneuver, if we don't act to stop it, threatens our freedom to explore the Internet with browsers of our choice.

This all seemed to happen so fast. In the last few years we’ve lost net neutrality and now are in danger of having another slice of the internet parcelled off to big tech.

Funny, it seems Google’s motto has slowly become “do nothing but evil at all costs”. What an absolute shit stain of a company they turned out to be.

Is there anyway to stop this?

Aside from some Fight Club shit on deck, nope. Everything ends up this way.
