I don’t get why so many tech people think that “allowing alternative browser engines” will do anything to change policy decisions made by Apple.

Like wish granted! You can now use Blink and V8 on iPhones! But…

* They still are required to delete website data after 7 days.

* They must distribute add-ones through the App Store.

* They still can’t run workers in the background because the browser is slept like any other app.

* They have to use Apple’s notification service like any other app.

* They can’t install things to the Home Screen because no other app can.

But yayyyy. Blink!
