So, they’ve “abandoned” WEI, but are now pursuing Android WebView Media Integrity API instead.
As a complete novice, that has a very limited understanding of how Andriod WebView operates or how prevalent it is within the system. (I gather, it’s a base to build browsers on?)
If I was an Andriod owner that used Firefox, how would this effect me? Would this be any different than using Chrome or something like Vivaldi?
Not sure how prevalent it is, but less than Apple’s equivalent. In Android the browser can use their own rendering engine, on IOs all use Safari’s WebKit. That said… this was going to change not sure.maybe already happened.
