SCRUM is toxic. It is toxic because it dis-empowers the developers who are doing the actual work and hands that power over to the "SCRUM master". The SCRUM master is the ultimate bureaucrat -- and a proxy for Management -- in a heavily bureaucratic methodology. The job of the SCRUM master is to guard and protect the SCRUM process.

I believe Adobe's CMS, Adobe Experience Manager, supports WebDAV.

I presume that expectation was that the human driver was suppose to be fully engaged to take evasive actions if and when required. What jumps up at me if that fact that the system does not alert the driver when his/her intervention is required.

Yep. On a human level, I really hope the PM is okay. Maybe open source communities can setup a way for core team members to check in on each other on personal level.

Does it allow you to reject the 'lunch date'?

Alerting is fine. Altering the page is not.

I don't think that browser should be in the business of blocking Ads. That's the job of 3rd party tools and extensions. A browsers job is to display a webpage as is not to alter it. At most it should scream if a man in the middle altered my page anything more is crossing the line.
