So, they can also block operating systems if they deemed them untrustworthy? So, if you are running Linux and some corporation deemed it "untrustworthy", you are SOL? What if you have a rooted phone? What if you are running graphene OS or calyx OS to protect your privacy? So, technically, if a site can't track you, they can just deem you as "untrustworthy"? This is fucked. We need to stop it at all costs.
I guess if such things were to concretise, alternative ways would rise. Slowly and far less efficient than the Google engine, but I guess there is always a solution. Maybe a network of relay, like VPN but for accesing Google domains ? I know it would be far from perfect...
