The wording of the blog is pure doublespeak:

> as we shift our focus to Manifest V3. This change will give Chrome users increased safety and peace of mind while browsing and installing extensions by providing more transparency and control over permissions, adding stricter protocols for accessing resources outside the extension’s context, and ensuring that extensions work well on all devices

It sounds like government gobbledygook, with even more lies (there are no extensions on Chrome on mobile, so what "all devices" means is anyone's guess).

I often wonder what goes on in the mind of people writing this. Are they happy? Why did they choose to work in tech instead of some administration, if BS is their thing? Is it just for the money?
