The vast majority of people will not care about or even be aware of this. They'll support it because they just want to watch their Netflix or YouTube. Things will continue on as normal, but with more ads and less end-user control.
It'll be a problem when people are effectively banned from the internet.
But again, the average person won't be impacted enough to care. They'll keep browsing. I'm not saying what Google is trying to do is okay, but it certainly wouldn't be the death of the internet.
They'll be impacted when they can't get online on a gosh darn iPhone because Apple doesn't wanna play ball with Google
You think Apple with App Attest and FairPlay won't jump on this?
It depends, if Google's the only one who can "Choose" they'll be all "I don't know about that one Chief", otherwise... Yeah I'm just practicing wishful thinking
