It is not only a privacy issue, "certified by entrenched gatekeeper mega-corporation" is a nightmare for user freedom. The first ones who will be impacted are the minority who root their devices and compile their own software, but in the long run there are detrimental effects of a monopoly at the gate, like the ease to implement surveillance, censorship and drm, that will apply to everyone.

I’m can’t begin to theorize how the future will play out if you need a PAT to access most web destinations. Do cloudflare or Apple engineers use Linux machines ever? Surely they do, and either know this is bad or have some plan to make it work?
