» When Chrome starts up, it fetches a list of feature flags from a Chrome server using a system called Finch which is independent of the normal upgrade system.
I'm not a Chrome user. But that sounds awful at first. What is the idea behind this service? Is there any documentation about the 'features' these flags can enable/disable?
I understand that I'm paranoid at times AND I really dislike Google, but why would you have an extra channel to influence deployments, other than offering a global update file?
