looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don't run a complaint browser ( cough...firefox )

here is an article in hacker news since i'm sure they can explain this to you better than i.

and also some github docs

Why can't we have nice things? I switch to Lemmy, about a month after that, Meta joins the fediverse.

I switch to Firefox ( thanks to the hype in this community, because I am average Joe after all) and yeah, it feels nicer. But wait- now these news...

Sorry everyone it's my fault. I switched to Firefox and Lemmy recently so Google and Facebook felt pressured to bring me back.

All fine. We'll tell them you're not here.
