       We will be disabling remote attestation (Web Environment Integrity) in #Debian's #chromium package. https://pluralistic.net/2023/08/02/self-incrimination/

       @Andres4NY Does that make it a fork? What will you call it?

       @jtb Nah, we already carry patches that change default behavior. For example, chrome allows 3rd party cookies (https://us.norton.com/blog/privacy/internet-privacy-third-party-cookies) by default.We disable them by default: https://salsa.debian.org/chromium-team/chromium/-/blob/master/debian/patches/disable/third-party-cookies.patchSo we're already a "fork" in the sense that we modify default behavior, but I think we're close enough to upstream that it's not worth a rename. Unless of course chrome goes the firefox trademark route and forces us to rename! :)

       @Andres4NY @jtb Why are you shipping chromium at all?

       @fabrice @Andres4NY @jtb because it's under a FOSS license,  maintainers are maintaining it, and it's not so buggy that Debian can't release with it. We've sometimes removed software for other reasons, but it's fairly unusual.
