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.
