With reports of Elon Musk eying to buy Chrome or OpenAI… sorry but I believe this was the best outcome, what we need is people using more Firefox that is one of the few non-Chromium browser out there.

Yeah, i had the same thoughts. The current chrome is better than the "Hitlerdidnothingwrong AI-First" browser those goons would have cooked up...

Was that anything more than just rumors? Letting a currently monopolistic company keep the browser because another bad billionaire might buy it and do something bad with it just prevents anything from changing.

Who would buy a browser for billions and billions of dollars? Just see who has this amount of money and how aggressive they would need to be to get return of investment.
