> > Wisner insists that “WEI is not designed to single out browsers or extensions” and that it won’t block browsers that spoof their identity.

Lets have Wisner, or Google, put their money where their mouth is. Lets have a serious financial penalty per instance where someone's browser is blocked due to WEI, regardless of who is doing the actual blocking. Because that is what you're promising us here. Or are you a bold-faced liar Mr. Wisner?

100mio per instance sounds fair for Google, and 10k per instance for Wisner sounds fair. It's after all not something that will happen he claims.

No I want some executive to come out, buy me a nice meal, and explain why they fucked up and how they're going to make it right.
