You have to be hopelessly naive to believe that the hold-back feature is going to be implemented as described, if at all, and not quietly removed when the outrage dies down.

And even if it stays as described, the percentage will be low enough that those that fail attestation can be safely barraged with captchas or simply told to go away. (You can try browsing the web with TOR to get a taste of how you will be treated)

The whole post can be summarized as "trust me bro"

Those cited 5-10% are laughable. If countless US sites prefer to just block the entire EU over bothering with privacy regulations they'll just tell you to reload the page every 10th to 20th time you click on something. Compared to what the majority of people already silently accept with ads, cookie banners and popups it's not even worth mentioning, and that's assuming Google can be trusted for once.
