Definitely one of the cooler projects to watch while I was there. I recall the goal was to open-source it from early on, so I'm glad to see it come to fruition!

Is there a source for this? I didn't see anything when Ctrl-F'ing their site.

Ownership philosophy aside, it's funny that you pick those two companies as examples.

The former enabled cert pinning (partially) as a response to a MITM[1] from the latter.

That is the general idea behind global privacy control[1], though Firefox still has it hidden behind about:config.

I remember some theories around 2021-2022 that Apple had modified the ANC in AirPods Pro/Max via a firmware update. If I recall, the thought was this was in response to some patent infringement.

Anecdotally, I think I noticed a difference, but I also chalked it up to prematurely-degrading hardware...
