If the choice is no internet, forever, or giving Oracle money, I'm gonna live in 1990 from here on out.

Return to Konqueror Browser from KDE - the grandfather webkit browser.

In all seriousness, I kind of wish that someone could build a sustained non profit like apache to take over chromium - if Google or Microsoft or others want to custom roll their own flavor fine, but Google being for-profit has been making decisions against the best for everyone browsing the web (such as the new plugin stuff around adblocks) (conflict of interest)

Besides gutting my former employer so that Larry can have even more money than he could hope to spend in a human lifetime?
