Probably doable on some devices, but also easily blockable, as the authorisation features are generally built into the hardware already. Remember the expectation/worry is that you'd only be able to use closed-source browsers, so any way to go around this would essentially require cracking. So this could end up being a cat and mouse game between the big tech and crackers. Just to visit a web site.
