Quite sure I reported this JS vulnerability to Google in of December 2022. I also detailed it in a report to SEC. And I kept reporting the issue to Google teams, to which they responded for me to &quot;check their privacy and security docs.&quot; See also <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;threads?id=burna_aws_acct" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;threads?id=burna_aws_acct</a>, where I commented about it on HackerNews.<p>But yea, give credit to Clement Lecigne of Google&#x27;s Threat Analysis Group (TAG), Google&#x27;s own team. This isn&#x27;t the first time they&#x27;ve done this either.<p>Just lost even more respect for that entire operation at Google. So whack.<p>Off to make another HN account, since I just burned this one...

no amount of prompt zero day mitigation will correct the problem of denying updates, to users that refuse to install an insecure operating system.<p>a webbrowser has no business demanding w11 installs, in exchange for updates.
