Rather than being completely blocked, I think non-attestable browsers will be subject to more CAPTCHAs and other annoyances, similar to what TOR users see today from anti-DDOS services. Perhaps ad-supported services using large amounts of bandwidth will decide not to support non-attested users, since the ad revenue from those isn't enough to pay for the bandwidth.
What I would like to see is a solution for anonymous microtransactions, so web sites have a monetary incentive to serve users who want to use a non-attestable browser (and don't want to see ads).
