I don’t see a scenario where google or the likes would be allowed to fail. So moot point.
Hypothetically it would open a window for open source services to sneak in.

Middle term? The phasing out of personal computers, and moving toward a system of servers/terminals where noone owns software.
You’ll rent computing power or storage space, you’ll only pay for the interface.
I think there’s a moral issue in giving youtube money.
Trying to find some that haven’t been talked about yet:
Echo. It’s a fantastic experimental infiltration game with an AI that adapts to your way of playing. The setup is very impressive.
Pathologic: one of the three playable characters (the Changeling). It’s a bizarre russian game, with an unique world, and messy gameplay. Can’t recommend it enough.
Va11 Hall-A: chill bartending game in a cyberpunk setup.
The Blackwell series: comfy, kind of amateurish point and clicks by Wadjet Eye. I like them very much.
Transistor: weirdest game by Supergiant. You play as a redhead with a talking sword. I don’t remember much about it except that it was good.
The Fall: (pushing it a little bit, since the protagonist is an AI, but I’ve always seen here as female.) Criminally underrated puzzle games, disguised as metroidvanias.
Eliza (by Zachtronics): the only visual novel I enjoyed. It’s hard to explain, it’s about AI, burnout, whether tech dehumanizes people, and solitaire.
Hedon Duology: for something completely different, it’s a slightly kinky retroshooter, with amazon Orcs fighting demons.
It may sound a bit dumb, but it’s excellent. Huge levels, interesting worldbuilding, and a gameplay based on exploration, puzzles as well as shooting.
There’s probably a ton more, but that’s all I can think about at the moment.
This looks amazing. Almost better than the original in some ways.
But playing Doom in 1:1 aspect ratio is masochism.
I’m still angry about it.
Depends what you mean by security.
If you mean privacy, no such thing exists. All browsers snitch on you, and trying to actually have a private life will land you in jail soon enough.
If you want to do online banking, any of the big three will do if updated regularly.
I’d choose firefox as a symbolic protest against tech oligarchy.

I think it’s a survival reflex. People pick up on popular trends, and follow them so they don’t get lynched. It’s hard to unlearn this kind of conditioning, even if you move to a relatively safe environment.
Meta will face daily fines of €89,500 if it doesn’t comply with the order.
Bet they can write it off as expenses.
