I remember people arguing that manifest v3 would be a security improvement.

Disregarding reality, this is already quite subjective and depends if you trust sites more than your browser addons.

Tracking doesn't seem to be a relevant threat to those that defend this "evolution".

Also disregarded is the shitty situation of mobile OS that disempower otherwise quite powerful devices that Google would like to extend to web browsers.

Yes, you can fully construct a hypothetical situation where manifest v3 can be an improvement. Just like chastity belts shield your from STDs.

The same bunch of bullshit can be extended to ideas about "web integrity". I think it is time that people stop being idiots about it.
