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.

    There’s a decent chunk of google workers who rely on H1B visas, so that’s another thing that can remove some agency. I think that the level of coercion and control H1B visas give companies over their workers allow them to do even crazier shit. Part of how Twitter was able to retain some good engineers despite… everything.

    I don’t know whether that actually applies in this case. But it’s not just money tethering people to their jobs.
