Pretty funny to see "use memory-safe programming languages, or features that improve memory safety within other languages" as a requirement when WebKit itself is built on top of C++ code.

I wonder if Apple would be allowed to ship WebKit if they enforce this requirement under the spirit of the EU laws that made them change their minds.



Note that the full requirement is:

> Use memory-safe programming languages, or features that improve memory safety within other languages, within the Alternative Web Browser Engine at a minimum for all code that processes web content

Emphasis added.
