> How the issue you're raising has anything to do with Google?

Because Google benefits from this and not me.

I think you would have to be stupidly naive to believe this legislative lobby happened without their help.

> Google hasn't forced those devs to not care about Firefox.

The only people who know that are Google and those devs, not me and not you.

But Apple did force those devs to care about Safari, and the things that work in both Safari and Chrome usually work in Firefox, so if you care at all about browser choice, you should be very afraid of this: As soon as my bank can tell me to install Chrome in order to pay my bills instead of doing any more work supporting Safari (and by extension Firefox), you better believe they will.
