And what happens when they decide to revoke that 5-10% after they got everyone onboard?
I mean, the same thing that is happening right now, right? The point would be that websites would not be built to only allow trusted clients-- it would still have to allow all clients. If they wanted to remove this 10% thing, it's not like the entire web would instantly stop being built to allow untrusted clients.
the 10% sounds like bait. Once they've got everyone on board and things are running smoothly (for them), it will be muuuch harder to resist.
I'm not sure this is true (keep in mind: weak grasp). This 10% would push websites from specifically blocking untrusted clients-- but if they got rid of the 5%, it would not magically change all the websites to block untrusted clients. They'd still need to update to do this.
I don't want to come off like I'm defending this though-- I really just don't know enough to say.
The vast majority of them would not change the default, and a simple mandatory update would change that to 0% without them having to do anything.
Do you think Google will implement this in the end?

As soon as they are in a position to do it
