Ever wondered what happens in the background when you open google.com? This relaxing video will not really help but make it more entertaining to watch.
It's now impossible to login to dReddit without running JavaScript from no less than 2 Goggle-controlled domains;
google.com and gstatic.com
(the latter just to make a f&*king button work urrggghhh)
Plus one at cdn-apple.com
The web is no longer 5 websites with screenshots of the other 4. It's functionally just one 1 big website controlled by 5 DataFarming corporations.
Four years later, the blog post is still strictly speaking true in the sense that no new browser engines can correctly render, say, google.com, but I concede the point in light of the fact that a browser engine that can render my blog is ostensibly feature complete 😉
