They need to add a row for ~~"Owned by a foreign superpower"~~"Owned by the Chinese government" and a check for Opera.
@DannyMac @Napain They are all owned by foreign powers.
Oh, your definition of "foreign" is non-US?
Everyone knows the world is divided into:
How is Mozilla owned by the US government?
On one hand, yeah. On the other hand, that could be a point in its favor, depending on your threat model. After all, if you're American, China can't prosecute you for secrets it learns from Opera the way the FBI could prosecute you for secrets it learns from Google.
On the third hand it's pointless cause they all buy each other's data anyways.
