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

Yet another vitally important front in the war on general purpose computing (it's a short and important read imo)

Fuck Google, and fuck DRM.

Thank you for that read. That honestly gave me a lot more perspective than I had, and that speech was quoted from over a decade ago!? The more I know, the more I realize how much I don't know... but hot damn. I know it's been a fight, but "a war" really does seem more apt
