    it will not happen, Google tried for years to use Chromium as a weapon against other chromium Browsers, without success and since even MS uses Chromium for EDGE, Google will prefer to bite a monogram in the gut, before following Chromium as a means of pressure, why mess with MS and incidentally with many other large companies would be shooting himself in the foot.

    But as I said before, Chromium is irrelevant as such for Google, the pressure can be done much better from the web itself with all the services of the one it has and thousands of pages that directly or indirectly depend on them. Google does not have more influence on Chromium than it does on Mozilla currently, and does not need it anymore either. If he pulls off this MEI DRM shit, he’ll have the ring to rule them all, regardless if they use Chromium, Gecko, WebKit or whatever, Game Over, internet is owned by Google.
