The title literally says ublock origin, and the entire point of the article and countless other such articles for at least the last year is exactly that ad blockers, and yes in particular ublock origin, will not be able to function.
No goal posts have moved and ublock origin is not just a random "specific blocker" it's the gold standard one that actually does what they all should, because the author is principled and not for sale.
In this context, "function" and "does what they all should" means "places ultimate control in the hands of the user" ie, allows you to do things that web sites and google don't like, but which you want. Most other ad blockers don't do that. They say they do, but they don't. Just like ublock itself, which caused the original author to fork and create ublock origin in the first place.
It's been exactly the same story ever since manifest v3 was first proposed.
If you somehow were unaware of that, consider yourself hereby informed.
