MODERATORS
the 10% sounds like bait. Once they've got everyone on board and things are running smoothly (for them), it will be muuuch harder to resist.
I'm not sure this is true (keep in mind: weak grasp). This 10% would push websites from specifically blocking untrusted clients-- but if they got rid of the 5%, it would not magically change all the websites to block untrusted clients. They'd still need to update to do this.
I don't want to come off like I'm defending this though-- I really just don't know enough to say.
The vast majority of them would not change the default, and a simple mandatory update would change that to 0% without them having to do anything.
Do you think Google will implement this in the end?
As soon as they are in a position to do it
