This blogpost starts with me switching of my car radio, and ends with me writing a browser. There is some stuff in between as well.
Interesting take from the author; exactly the kind of thing that might start something big — or maybe it won’t, and that’s OK, too. Either way, I can appreciate the attitude!
(There’s also a discussion on the orange site)
Ah, my bad. Bypassing such integrity checks should still be doable, either by reverse engineering and spoofing the communications between the browser and Google, or by modifying a “trusted browser” in a way that keeps it from detecting such alterations. It might not be very reliable though, as the internals could be changed arbitrarily with each update, and old versions blocked in the name of security.
