Free Pietje 🇵🇸 🍉<p>Remember that horrific Web Environment Integrity proposal?</p><p>Well, G👀gle listened to the feedback!<br>So it's coming to <a href="https://x0f.org/tags/Chromium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chromium</span></a> in 117.0.5902.0 and later.</p><p>LOL, wait.
