If the web integrity API goes live and I can’t use some sites because of it, it will be very nice to have a very clear filter on what websites are complete garbage for using it. Vivat librewolf + VPN!
Probably Netflix, YouTube, and streaming apps first. I’d say banks, but banks are slow. Games won’t take long. If there’s not enough blowback it’ll spread to every website that uses captchas today.
I feel like if a bank is going to use it, there needs to be a clear financial reason to. Because if someone can’t access their account, they might lose their shit and leave for the first bank whose website works.
This is the kick in the butt I needed to de-google my life. I’ve already gotten halfway there, just need to make the full switch to proton mail, and then see what I can disconnect from my android phone.
I would hate to switch to Apple, but I may consider it if they are gonna pull this nonsense.

any websites that implement that API will never see me visit them ever again
