Any ideas what the behavior of webpages will be if somebody uses PiHole?
Since PiHole isn't part of the browser but in the network I assume that still works.

This won't be used just to block ads. If you're signed in to Google, this DRM will be used to track you, as well. VPNs will be useless because the tracking won't be done through your IP address, but through your browser, identified by DRM and tied to your Google account.
That's what this is really about. Knowing, where you go, what you see, what you buy, who you associate with. Forcing you to watch ads is just the icing on the cake
