Depends on the browser. Some chromium-based browsers won’t be affected and some will.
Just go to the browser’s help page to find out.
It's roughly a month that I switched to firefox on pc and android and I've never been happier!
Ok, I get all the hate towards google chrome. But pragmatically speaking, will this boost firefox? I feel like even nowadays a ton of people don't even know about adblockers, I'm not sure if they will do the switch to a whole different browser...

chrome keeps locking up my win11 today. posting from ff now, again. gg google
Talk about misunderstanding your user base... The backlash will be tremendous. I'm considering banning Chrome at work because of the security risk of letting business people use the Internet without the protection of an ad blocker.
Let see what's happening in a year.. for now everything fine when the time comes then people will have to find a solution but anyway who cares what Google say haha..
