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

    I’m using a SailfishOS (Linux) phone and on SFOS forums it’s one of the biggest complaints, they can’t use their bank through the Android compatibility layer because it doesn’t pass SafetyNet. I’m lucky enough that my bank doesn’t do this, but I had to fiddle with low level stuff for Revolut to work - they require you install the app from Play Store or the app doesn’t work.
