If you want to continue using any of them, you should probably uninstall any Chrome-based browser now: https://techreport.com/news/google-tries-to-defend-its-web-environment-integrity-as-critics-slam-it-as-dangerous/

"Through WEI, Google aims to help websites weed out bots by verifying that the visitors on their domains are actual users."

In other words, if this gets implemented it is likely that Youtube will block anything that doesn't look like a "real browser" (i.e. Chrome), so no videos in alternative apps anymore.

Yeah, I added the link since the embedded image didn't seem to work.

If you want to push back against the rising right-wing bigotry modding a decently sized subreddit might be one of the most effective places for regular people to do so. Arguably that power is not irrelevant in today's social media landscape.

feels a little shady for Google to immediately do this immediately after payment stops. Not saying it’s a direct retaliation

It's not: https://www.reuters.com/technology/twitter-resumes-paying-google-cloud-bloomberg-news-2023-06-21/

I guess that was boring so it didn't get much attention.
