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

Works a good protest be to switch to iPhone as well since they are safari based browsers?

You could also just install Firefox on your Android. That may not work in the future, but it will continue to work for now

I am very pessimistic but even I dont think mozzilla will abandon gecko. For one it works, also it is all they have.

Who do you think the first / main Attesters are going to be with this proposals? Well, companies that have the mediums to do so and the captive audiences to precheck. Such as GAFAM of which Apple is part and founder of.
