>Wrong. Blink is based on WebKit's component called WebCore, which was originally a fork of the KHTML and KJS libraries from KDE.
And then Google contributes back to WebCore, making WebKit, which uses WebCore, a "clone" of Blink, which in turn makes all WebKit-based browser "clone" of Google Chrome.
It's ok to be pedantic, but don't lose the important bits, please.
>When did I project that it doesn't have a strong relationship with Mozilla?
When you thought that someone saying that Tor has strong relationships with Mozilla means the whole thing is compromised (which doesn't make sense and no one said anything like that.)
It's right here in
>>2035, please re-read it. You are answering to
>>2024, quoting this part: "Tor Project has a strong relationship with Mozilla (e.g. "Tor Uplift")".
You are not explicitly saying that there are no ties, but it sure came off as such. Maybe you should've used a different quote.
>Especially if you consider the fact about Tor Project having to remove all of Firefox ESR's components that is spyware.
Wouldn't moving to a browser with no spyware by default make things easier for them?
I mean, if you have to put X hours to remove spyware before you are able to actually work on the important things, then moving to something without spyware means you can put those X hours into the important things, essentially giving you more resources.
UXP (Unified XUL Platform) doesn't have built-in spyware (yes, I read the source code), meaning the Tor project could use the platform to build a browser on top of it, without wasting time removing things that aren't there to begin with.
