    Imagine what happens when a big company like Facebook decides they’re going to create the Meta App Store, and they think they’re a big enough entity to get enough users to switch. Ultimately users will need to choose between the security they’re guaranteed today, or being able to continue to use their favorite apps.

      Just a browser that doesn’t properly sandbox javascript would be a fucking disaster. Even only be limited to data of other third party apps, because users are using third party apps.

      It’s not “if”, it’s “when”. It won’t be an “accidental” security lapse either. Although that’s what will be claimed.
