      It’s not “in case”. The court ruling has been pretty clear that Google can’t fund them anymore. That doesn’t matter to Google, because they own the W3C & the Linux Foundation now. The antitrust came too late and it’s taking too long.

      Google needs to be broken up, yesterday. Their overwhelming grip on the Internet needs to broken hard.

      And then we need to shut Cloudflare down.

          Cloudflare hosts half the Internet. That’s a huge problem, and monopolistic. I’m opposed to the centralization on its own, I’m even more opposed to it being controlled by a corporate entity.
