With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

When v2 gets removed, why wouldn't it be possible for ungoogled-chromium to just re-add it (or not remove it in the first place)? The more I think about it, the more silly it becomes that downstream forks would not be able to re-add v2 support. I mean, it's all open source right? The code is right there. I guess it could be technically impossible, or perhaps the fundamental aspect of Chromium changes so much that you could not be able to do it.

I am thinking along the same lines. If they did remove it, they would probably try to make it a pain in the ass to add it back in, right? Certainly beyond my own abilities, however, I have faith someone would be able to do it!
