looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don't run a complaint browser ( cough...firefox )

here is an article in hacker news since i'm sure they can explain this to you better than i.

and also some github docs

They can't have a plan for that. They have two options: conform or leave EU.

lol, just become the government pay the EU.

EU is widely adopting the policy of fining by a percentage of global revenue which is what hurts even the largest companies, precisely to avoid "just pay the EU".

And what glorious percentage is that? 25% 30%? 35% And on what schedule? Weekly? Daily?
