The French government is considering a law that would require web browsers – like Mozilla’s Firefox – to block websites chosen by the government.

I don’t think you understand what open source means.
I think I do. The source is open, but that doesn’t mean that the community decides what happens with Chromium. The comment I was replying to said that the FOSS community would not embrace Google’s decision. I say that Google does not care about you. What are you gonna do about it, short of forking Chromium and going your own way, or maybe patching out their changes? Most people will stay on the unmodified Chromium
If I maintain a piece of software and everyone decides they’d rather use my version than develop their own, does that mean I control it, or does it just mean everyone is happy enough with my work that they’d rather use mine than do it themselves?
I don’t see how that’s relevant.
I dunno, maybe use of the many other Chromium-based browsers from groups that are already maintaining their own forks? Or use another browser entirely? I do both, actually.
