That’s ok. Us nerds have been defeating DRM in its many forms for decades. This will be no different.

Not really true for video games. Plenty of popular games still with uncracked denuvo…

You forgot to mention it's also coming to all Chromium based browsers as well in the form of ManifestV3

Manifest V3 doesn’t really have the real client side DRM. It just has the ad-blocker breaking API changes. The real DRM will be whatever comes of the abandoned Web Environment Integrity API. (It’s not really abandoned just shifted over to only Android WebView.)

Couldn’t they fork Brave and have both a current and a ManifestV3 version?

Usually Brave strips away invasive/unfavolrable stuff from Google before releasing. OTOH, browsers with inbuilt adblockers won’t be affected by MV3, as the latter only applyes to extensions. Inbuilt adblocers are part of the browser itself and aren’t constrained by whatever rule Google may want to put in place.
