Both aren’t “liberi”

1000px-Chromium_11_Logo.svgChrome – one of the most widespread browser – is proprietary software with Chromium being is “open source” base.

According to Debian #Debian Bug report logs for “786909 – chromium: unconditionally downloads binary blob” Chromium even when built from source code still try to inject binary blobs – proprietary software – on your system without notifying the owner of the system where it runs. So we cannot really trust it anymore, we shouldn’t consider Chromium as “software libero” (or libre or Free-as-in-freedom-software)

That’s not a good.
