And this is why Google is speculating to integrate WEI on Google Chrome and business owners and advertisers are going to gladly welcomeand implement it and pressure web developers to do the same on their websites. Just because there's no direct defrauding going on, doesn't mean ad networks aren't noticing and accounting for it.

Apple already has shipped something similar. https://httptoolkit.com/blog/apple-private-access-tokens-att...

"hihi, my browser clicks ads in the background, I'm fighting Big Tech so hard rn"

Google implements WEI on chrome and normal users who just want to block ads can't use their extensions anymore.

"Google Bad! I want to block my ads and cause you financial loss too"

"NO" - Google

So, mission accomplished?
