Chromium unconditionally downloads binary blob
I advise not reading that bug, some of the later comments will give you brain cancer.https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=786909#51Downvotes? So you agree with this?"I seriously consider the good faith of an such upstream which does these kinds of things""But basically secretly downloading it leads to the question of possible malicious intent (and everyone knows that Google&Co. do voluntarily and/or forcibly cooperate with NSA and friends).""while I haven't looked at the code, I wouldn't even be surprised if the downloading itself is done insecurely.""Worse, chromium isn't the only such rootkit-downloader,... e.g. FF which secretly downloaded the OpenH264 blob."Really if you condone this attitude then I can only say...well I won't say it but it isn't nice. Not only that, everyone seemingly ignores the: "Note that the binary blob is executed throught native client, which is not enabled by default" part.You people are so beyond reasonableness I find myself defending Chrome/Google. I can't believe this.
