This is how the situation will unfold...

- The WEI check will be designed with a level of simplicity that tech-savvy individuals or hackers can easily bypass. Criticisms or objections will be quieted with comments like, "You just need to initiate the browser using these 50 different settings and you're good."

- On the other hand, the WEI check will be intricate enough that an average user won't be able to circumvent it, resulting in them being obligated to view ads.

In this way, it's a win-win situation: the hackers maintain their access to an "open" web, while the vast majority (99%) of the population will navigate through a "Google" web.

WEI is a proxy to Play Protect which is already a pain in the ass to circumvent for techies.
