"What Google and Mozilla object to is that the DID method is left undefined not controlled by Google."

I am conflicted on this. On the one had, it seems good that Google, et al, were opposing what appears to be a rabbit hole of a standard. On the other hand, I have no doubt that if this idea had originated at Google and they had some crazy idea of how to use it to push more ads, they'd be smoothing over all the cracks and promising the same exact things that these DID folks are promising.
