minus-squarejarfil ( jarfil@beehaw.org ) linkfedilinkarrow-up7·3 years ago 2023: Google rolls out Web Environment Integrity checks into Chrome It hasn’t. WEI is only a proposal draft, for now.

minus-squarejarfil ( jarfil@beehaw.org ) linkfedilinkarrow-up5·3 years agoThat commit doesn’t implement WEI; it adds some development tests for the hypothetical API, and actually adds a feature to prevent the API from even getting enabled for testing. Websites can’t start using it, because it isn’t there.
