Google has defended its Web Environment Integrity on the grounds that it aims to make web browsing more private and safe through tokens.

I'm happy to see this being noticed more and more. Google wants to destroy the open web, so it's a lot at stake.

Google basically says "Trust us". What a joke.

So, how the hell is this supposed to prevent bots? Unless Google are planning to completely lock the browser down to prevent user scripting and all extensions then surely you can still automate the browser?
- Unless Google are planning to completely lock the browser down to prevent user scripting and all extensions
  Ding ding ding!
  
  Then how are Web Devs supposed to run automated tests?
  
  Through the soon to be "Google WebTest, the WEI compliant test suite, powered by AI!"
  Or something like that. Selling the antidote for the poison you created.
  
  Or they just don't enable it in their test env.
  
  It doesn't actually prevent anything because you can just use a different browser.
  
  Remember those "Please use a supported browser" messages websites had?
  With Web Environment Integrity they'll be back, and worse.
