Browsers should be open standards, like TCP/IP.

browsers are not protocols but applications. how do you make an open standard for an application? was that done before?

Well Edge is a fork of Chromium. The problem is its centrally controlled by Google and large tech giants, hence them banning adblock and such.

TCP over IP as a protocol is an “open standard”. Network implementations are nearly always strictly proprietary.
The “protocols” behind browsers are public. HTML, CSS, and ECMAScript are all well defined on sites like the Mozilla documentation. You are free to implement your own browser than follows these standards.
