Practically speaking, you would have to use Chromium as a base, if you want the product to be successful. And if you do that, Google has a million ways to screw you up. One of the first obstacles you will find will be Widevine. Hardly anyone moves past that point.

Not sure why you got downvoted. Practically speaking, A fully fledged and compliant modern browser would require a team to build if not built off the back of another browser. So either you're a funded non-profit or you need to make money which doesn't seem compatible with privacy on the internet.

Why not use Firefox as a base?
