    This is a super clickbait title.

    Yes, what Microsoft does is pretty shitty but the article sounds like there’s some massive zero day hack or something to watch out for when it’s just standard business practice.

      Agreed. I would’ve changed it except I had in the back of my mind that the post title needed to match the article title, but now I don’t see that in the rules. Oh well. But yeah the article is not really about Chrome at all.
