If the web integrity API goes live and I can’t use some sites because of it, it will be very nice to have a very clear filter on what websites are complete garbage for using it. Vivat librewolf + VPN!
Not that I don’t fully agree actually, but just want to point out that… Not using the web is an outcome they absolutely want. That way only the “right people” are using the Internet so there can be the maximum amount of advertising and money made from each iota of bandwidth they have pried from their hands.
You aren’t monetizable? Well they don’t want you wasting resources if you won’t increase their paycheck. It’s just the Internet once again being early in resource hording.
Probably Netflix, YouTube, and streaming apps first. I’d say banks, but banks are slow. Games won’t take long. If there’s not enough blowback it’ll spread to every website that uses captchas today.
I feel like if a bank is going to use it, there needs to be a clear financial reason to. Because if someone can’t access their account, they might lose their shit and leave for the first bank whose website works.
are they seriously still going ahead with this shit? Web Integrity API is the worst idea in existence
