Googles browser offers functionality to Googles websites that it does not offer to any other website.

When you log into an Google owned site, it interacts with the browser so that you are 'logged into your browser' with that Google account.

That is not pushing standards into a direction. That is blatant exploitation of ther market position.

You're already logged into sites you're already logged into.

I'm not exactly sure how advantageous you think this is.

Yeah, all that really happens is that it shows your profile picture, and autofills passwords, when it detects the google login cookie. Nothing that other browsers couldn't implement themselves.

For what sites would other browsers do this? Would those browsers be paid by those sites?
