It's insane we let Google run the web and be the literal gatekeeper of it. Chrome is literally the gate you use to enter the web and its owned by Google. The solution is surely to make that monopoly illegal. After all we/government constantly blocks mergers that seem much more benign and less impactful (see Amazon/iRobot acquisition) just because they involve money? This is far worse.

Three quarters of the internet uses Chrome.
