It seems like this solution is intended to solve the problem of bots padding numbers for sites providing advertisements on the web. This isn’t a userland problem, it’s an advertiser problem. But the user experience will be worse for it.

I’m seeing the biggest issue is who decides what a “trusted” browser is. Is it Google? I’m guessing the will establish a non-profit “independent” advisory board which will have members who somehow align with the interests of all major advertising stakeholders in the world. This is dripping with anti-compete potential. Some lawyers are going to get rich from this.
