>The point is that if chrome implements this, netflix, amazon, facebook etc might decide they'll use this feature and only permit browsers who implement this to use this site.

Works for me. I don't need those sites/services. If they want to be actively hostile to me, I can vote with my feet/wallet.

I can't (nor do I wish to) control what other people do. Just what I do.

As it stands now, I block the bulk of scripts/ads/trackers/other spyware on my devices, and those who don't like that are free to block me from accessing their sites.

Maybe I'm missing something important here, but I don't need anything from Alphabet, Netflix, Meta or any other rapacious corporation. They can do what they like, and I will do the same.

>Have fun using Firefox if half of the web locks you out or treats you like a second class citizen.

If the above folks are who you consider "half the web" then, at least for me, nothing of value would be lost, as I don't use that garbage anyway.
