And since you won’t be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.
The community feedback is… interesting to say the least.

That’s a good way for me to never visit your website again. Honestly, this kinda sounds like the death of the internet if I’m being honest. This would transform it from a free medium into a full blown corporate dystopia. It’s really scary to see the digital (corporate) development over the past couple decades. Would be really cool if we don’t move further towards some cyberpunk like future where megacorps control everything.
Bit late on that front. If you think governments are in control, then you are a tad naive
I think the level of government capture in the US is unique. The EU is kinda balanced, as many good things as bad in this regard, while the authoritarian part of the world is definitely not corporate controlled.
Good luck with that when all websites do this.
So it’s come to this. The end of the internet.
We’ll start our own websites, with blackjack and hookers.
Once this sort of shit becomes normalized enough with websites, I’m sure it’ll come to ISPs themselves, too.
That really is the solution. We desperately need to make our own websites again and boycott the shitty corporate controlled ones. If we can replace Reddit with Lemmy, we can replace every other piece of shit site or app they come up with too.
Bring back web rings!
It’s already owned by corporations.
Google taking some ideas from Cyberpunk 2077 and NetWatch.
