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

    No captcha’s for any of my banking services. I don’t know how effective captcha’s are anyways. I suspect slow cooldowns are probably more secure.

      Huh, neat. Regardless, I think google will find a way to sell it or they wouldn’t be invested in it so much, but point taken. I just saw a lot of people commenting on other places about how this is hopeless and there’s no way to protest and wanted to give a solid example of how it could be done effectively.
