Small info piece: Chrome isn't open source.
Otherwise I agree (even if it means agreeing with Peter Thiel in this case).

Well shiver me timbers, if that isn't a hoot.
Maybe my vernacular is off, "source available" ?
ah "licensed freeware"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome
chromium is open source, chrome is chromium + proprietary stuff added on top
99% of its source is open. I wonder what you think of open source applications that make API calls into closed source cloud systems?
Where does that 99% figure come from?
I think it's 100% open source chromium, minus some unknown percentage that's closed source surveillance blobs = ~99%. That's the maths I'm inferring.
