Don't trust what can't be audited. Chromium is maybe "open source" but the permissive licenses that it has permits to not share the source of the distributed binaries. Like said at the beginning it can become Proprietary software thus you can't audit it if it's closed.
Has for the chromium security problems that you mentioned chromium is known for not being for the user: https://trisquel.info/en/forum/chromium-unconditionally-downloads-binary-blob > > If no one knows, what procedure do I go through to determine the answer > myself (with the understanding that I am basically a computer idiot, but > I quit Windows entirely in 2004 and became an Ubuntu user until earlier > this year when I jumped on to Devuan). Glad to ear that. If you are new to the free software world I suggest Icecat has a browser, then activate or deactivate what addons you want in it. One addon that I recommend if you want to go the easy way is "µblock origin" and if you want the hard but secure way I suggest "umatrix". Good luck. > > airmoose > _______________________________________________ > Dng mailing list > Dng@lists.dyne.org > https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng -- Librement BERNARD ENG: Please be kind enough to use GPG for our future conversations: https://emailselfdefense.fsf.org/en/ If this email isn't PGP signed then it isn't mine. -If you can't compile it dump it.
