Google wants to implement a system that will check if the version of the website that you have loaded on your computer is identical to the one that was intended. They say this will prevent fraud and improve security, but the most relevant impact for end-users is that ad blockers and any other customization you do to websites will prevent you from accessing critical Internet services. The fear is that Googles massive share in the browser will allow them to push this through regardless of consumer opposition.
