Not sure they understand the flow on effects. Those of us being affected and work in the corporate IT space who have a lot of say in what browsers are used will simply replace chrome with Firefox on our thousands of machines nationwide without a second thought. They are digging their own grave.

It's a little more complex then that.

First we need to draft a project to keep the PMs happy. Then test the change...

Then get it through change management...

Or just have our friends in secops make it a security call and a priority. Not saying I've done this before - no sir.

Their masterplan is possibly to deactivate certain websites for anything but chrome.

Sadly, their user base is really every idiot with a cell phone or MacBook and not those of us who do as you suggest.
