Not viable for the majority of users.
How do you explain to one of these "I'm not good with computers haha" types what a CDN is and why Taboola CDN shouldn't be allowed but Akamai should be otherwise things Won't Work Right. Even if they're capable of learning [1] why should they care, when all these security measures actively make their life harder?
Blocking audio and other fingerprintable surfaces by default, with a "click here to enable audio / video" and a "remember my choice on this site in future" is the only way it can possibly work, because 99% of users will only ever go for the laziest option. We need to have protections for them that work regardless of (or in spite of) their skill level.
