I could have sworn I saw something saying Google caved on this due to pressure.
They pushed it back. They've done so several times with Manifest V3.
Thankfully Google is really good at killing things.
I've never really understood the obsession with this. Yes, it's true, but 1) they've never killed anything I actually cared about 2) they can't support infinite software forever. 3) this discussion has nothing to do with anything here. They aren't going to "kill" ads, it's literally the one thing about their company that will never not be the focus.
