    That’s not what’s said in the article. At all. What so ever.

    The problem isn’t suddenly allowing third party browsers. It’s that Apple’s implementation to allow that in Safari sends out info about sites visited with those app stores. It allows snooping of what 3rd party things people use.

        No, the problem is with APPLE’S IMPLEMENTATION of HOW Apple allows third party stores through Safari. NOT with third party browsers themselves. Please learn to read.

      The problem isn’t suddenly allowing third party browsers.

      The problem here - the ONLY problem - is using a fucking browser to do everything, instead of… you know, browsing.

      An app store app should be installed as an app. It has no business being specially handled by a browser.

      That’s what you get when you turn browsers into mini operating systems: the thing’s attack surface increases by orders of magnitude.

        Well that’s just Apple “innovation”. You’re clearly not brilliant enough to understand the long term plan of greedy morons Apple.

        I’d argue the problem isn’t “browsers”, but Apple’s closed ecosystem clashing with a more secured internet. They do not need to do it this way, which makes it their fault.
