looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don't run a complaint browser ( cough...firefox )

here is an article in hacker news since i'm sure they can explain this to you better than i.

and also some github docs

rip cds dvds and load to cheap thumb drives for legal backups. distribute to your friends in case you lose your copy. It's on them if they copy your backups. vlc usually just works as a mobile->car bluetooth source. G broke theirs hoping to charge for it on YTmusic. not a dime mfrs. ha. I use HandBrake for ripping dvds->mp4s, mp3 w/e you need. many other rippers to choose from. open source forever. chrome is just google's version of that source code. get a working version

I haven’t used Chrome years, Firefox and Brave browser suit me fine. Since Brave uses the same engine and extensions. What’s the downside of Brave besides ppl not liking the creator? If I stopped using every device and product with an evil genius behind it I’d live in a cave somewhere with no technology at all.
