If everyone was relying on Google, then that should come to an end. Browsers got WAY too bloated anyway, and frankly I think we can dramatically simplify the web too.

There should be some kind of open-source consortium that is in control of web standards, and then some open-source kernel for all Web Browsers to share, just like there are independent versions of Linux all sharing a common core.

So it's a good thing if Google loses control. I'm all for it. They have too much power.
