It's just a "proposal," but it's also being prototyped inside Chrome right now.

I’m worried there won’t be much of a backlash.

People as a whole don’t seem to care very much about the bad behavior of these big tech companies.

I hope I’m wrong.

Tho there already backlash but we will see happens.

From technically savvy people, I imagine.

The average user won’t understand the implications or won’t care enough to avoid it. That alone would lead to a HUGE amount of adoption if/when they deploy this.
