Exist a simple solution to "put back" to Chromium: include Iridium into the Parabola repo (is recommended by the FSF into the FSD instead of Chromium, and the development is focused to respect the privacy excluding all presence of Google intrusive tools and/or another licensing issues).

Remember that Chromium and Iridium are based on modified BSD license, and maybe an "exorcism" could be needed to make effective into the FSDG.

back when chromium was blacklisted in parabola and other libre distro it
was about uncertainty on the licensing of at least one source file,
maybe that has been solved by now?  i can't recall the details, but it
should be documented on our mail archive or gnu-linux-libre's
We should consider if Debian from its patches removes
recommendation/support to non-Free add-ons from chromium. Firefox is a
perfect case that recommends/supports non-Free add-ons and Debian
doesn't uses FSF directory to solve it.
