The part that concerned me when I originally read it back when it was posted was the "Turn on by default the tools to amplify factual voices over disinformation" line that linked to a NY Times article about censoring the internet. It is behind a paywall now, and I presume a lot of people who see no issue with this did not actually read the NY Times link. Without that context, "amplify factual voices over disinformation" absolutely sounds like a good thing. But I definitely do not want my browser deciding what it should and should not render for me. A browser should remain neutral.
