They're going to prevent me from running an adblocker in this "web integrity" environment, aren't they.

Not until Mozilla gives in.

As I recall, Mozilla caved last time with EME so I would not count on it.

Yeah, that was when I realized that Mozilla wasn't really able to stand up to the bad guys as much as we'd hope.

You can still disable EME if you don't want it. That's a lot harder to do on other browsers.

I would probably have dropped Firefox back then if it was the only browser that I couldn't watch Netflix in, and I wouldn't be the only one. I don't think Mozilla can bear the loss of userbase.

Right. That's why Mozilla can't meaningfully stand up against these forces anymore. It's not that they don't want to, it's that they don't have the market strength.
