> It would take about 15 minutes to create a browser extension that could make a hash of all the files loaded, to compare with other users with the extension installed You completely underestimate it. I am absolutely certain that you cannot create a browser extension that meaningfully solves this problem in 15 minutes. > Web applications are sandboxed in the web browser. Very little issue with that Except that when we are talking about end-to-end encryption, the sandbox has nothing to do with it. The sandbox defends against something else, not the server serving you an end-to-end encryption program abusing it. > AWS has a web-based terminal for EC2 instances. It's not a problem, a lot of people use it. I genuinely can't see if you just don't understand the point being discussed at all, or if you keep saying off-topic things as a way to divert the discussion. |

You are absolutely wrong. I write browser extensions, I can spin up a new one in a minute, and the code to monitor and hash all resources loaded by a webpage is trivially easy to do. It would be simple to set up a server to allow comparing the hashes, in a POC. I'm not talking about making this a robust service that everyone can use, I'm only talking about how easy it is to do in a general way. It's far easier than you think it is.
>>>I wouldn't run a web-based terminal, for instance (do people actually do that?).

You're right, I certainly don't understand the nonsense you're trying to convey.
I'm also tired of this pointless internet interaction. Goodbye.
