Yep! Unfortunately its main method (as far as I remember from when I first read the proposal at least, it may do more) is adding preflight requests and headers to opt-in, which works for most cases yet doesn't block behind-the-lines collaborating apps like mentioned in the main article. If there's a listening app (like Meta was caught doing) that's expecting the requests, this doesn't do much to protect you.

EDIT: Looks like it does mention integrating into the permissions system [0], I guess I missed that. Glad they covered that consideration, then!
