    This is a silly beginning of a serious precedent.

    Some day it will make it’s way to banking apps/sites being unusable on OSes other than approved “secure” ones.

      That day was years ago. Many banking apps refuse to start if you even just have your bootloader unlocked, and some banking websites only support Chrome, some really crappy ones even only Chrome or Edge on Windows specifically.
