> since then you have seemed to only mistrust free software developers by
default
This is incorrect. I don't mistrust a particular group of people. I question
the value of trust as a whole.
> putting the burden on people here who aren't even interested in non-free
software like Chromium to use their time to audit it for you to prove that it
*isn't* perfect
I don't know why you say that. Chromium seems just as non-free as Firefox
considering the link shared by another poster
(https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Libre_Browsers_Libre_Formats#Browsers_that_might_seem_free.2C_but_are_not)
yet for some reason people mention it as free, prefer it, fork it and make
browsers using the same flawed code which obviously leads to the same privacy
issues in the forks. The only people from whom I asked to check their code
are the developers which is what bug reports are for.
> having said that you had some sort of suggestion
I never said that. I shared what came to me mind and invited others to share
your thoughts. You said you had no time to ask further. Was I supposed to
elaborate without anyone being interested? Or to open a thread about it and
talk to myself?
> to point out a problem even though you don't have a solution yourself, as
long as your approach is conducive to finding a solution.
I am questioning the whole approach of looking at everything in
problem-solution pairs. We already have technology based on that.
> A specific proposal (even if it is not a complete solution) to improve it
would be interestng
It is not possible to come to the specific without looking. The new thread is
about looking together, thinking together, questioning together - not about
one person giving a proposal and N other people agreeing or disagreeing,
evaluating everything through the prism of an authority, arguing etc. If that
is not possible - let's not make a problem-solution pair out of it ;)
