That is a false equivalency.

We (theoretically) have control to improve and enhance workers' rights, and can make legislative changes to increase job security, or decouple the ability to live and subsist with employment.

I don't see Chrome going anywhere for a long time, and I don't see Google blocking its own analytics service within its own browser on its own volition.

Agreed that it's too late in that the key is compromised at that point, but a notification before you release to production that you've accidentally committed it allows you to roll the key (hopefully) before any bad actors find it.

Fair, but my confidence in it stems from the giant community around Next.js. Zeit, a company with a good reputation among developers, works on it full time. It has contributions from other big-name OSS contributors and big companies (Netflix, Hulu, Nike, Ticketmaster, Jet, Auth0, Marvel, etc.). It's definitely a liability if it were truly just one individual developing it, but I suppose it's more that there's a small core of facilitators, with a giant OSS community around it.
