    If you ever see a headline that says “x% of people believe/want/feel y”, it’s nonsense. You can manufacture a crooked methodology to get x% of people to say anything.

    “Can I have a minute of your time? There has been evidence that people who use alternative browsers are more likely to commit acts of terrorism and human trafficking. Would you be in favour of more support for alternative browsers, or would you rather have higher quality public schools?”

    And just like magic, you can now write a headline that only 2% of people want a browser choice screen.
