Depends on the browser. Some chromium-based browsers won’t be affected and some will.
Just go to the browser’s help page to find out.
Google Chrome will limit your digital rights starting June 2024
Wait, not "starting," my bad.
Ok, I get all the hate towards google chrome. But pragmatically speaking, will this boost firefox? I feel like even nowadays a ton of people don't even know about adblockers, I'm not sure if they will do the switch to a whole different browser...

It's roughly a month that I switched to firefox on pc and android and I've never been happier!
Talk about misunderstanding your user base... The backlash will be tremendous. I'm considering banning Chrome at work because of the security risk of letting business people use the Internet without the protection of an ad blocker.
