And if ad-blockers are considered illegitimate software?

This would be entirely in line with financial incentives of the proposed attesters and even logically defensible (oh well, we haven’t vetted uBlock, so you can’t browse with that installed).

And if I want to use links on z80?

And aside from niche platforms, do you want the 3 big companies to decide what you're allowed to see on the internet?

I think you may have misunderstood my comment, which was disagreeing with the parent comment.

I do not want those companies (or anyone, really) to be able to decide what is or is not an allowed hardware/software setup to access anything.

More like Links on a 486. If this happens, I won't use anything else but IRC, XMPP, NNTP, Gopher and Gemini.

You can't block a hosts file, or a firewall between you and your ISP.
