Chrome For Android Gets Its Own Canary Channel (betanews.com)

Posted by msmash on Tuesday October 18, 2016 @07:00PM from the cutting-edge dept.

Google is bringing bleeding-edge Canary channel for Chrome to Android. Through Canary channel, the company introduces early versions of Chrome upgrades to the early adopter and developers, and seeks feedback. Prior to this, Canary channel was available for the desktop version of Chrome. Alex Mineer, APK Administrator & Bug Basher said, "Just like the Canary channel for other platforms, new versions are built from the most recent code available and often contain a variety of new features, enhancements, and bug fixes. These builds are shipped automatically with no manual testing, which means that the build can be unstable and may even stop working entirely for days at a time. However, the goal is for Canary to remain usable at all times, and the Chrome team prioritizes fixing major issues as quickly as possible."

Warrant canary by quenda · 2016-10-18 19:55 · Score: 5, Interesting

I was expecting a Warrant canary.
e.g. something to say they have not yet been been given secret orders by the NSA/CIA to install a backdoor for spying on users.
Like Apple used to have. Is there some reason Google cannot do that?
