- The page warns that provenance marks cannot certify human authorship and that missing marks are not evidence of it.
Field notes
The page distinguishes the default fail-open behavior from provenance_required, which blocks when verification is unavailable and is said to block most current web content. Four Linux package variants are listed with SHA256 values, alongside a warning that the packages are not yet GPG-signed. The author also says the Chromium base is pinned and does not claim security currency with upstream.
