Or web site owners that use it will go out of business because people don’t want to change their browsers. The companies will realize their decision was bad when all of a sudden their customers stop coming to their sites.

Google needs shut down! Or at least go back to being a search engine.

Let's hope Apple puts their "privacy first" money where their mouth is.

Sadly I do however think the ability to further lock down and control what uses can see and access might be just as tempting for them...

Apple "privacy first" policy is just the corporate image they want to sell, if they can get away with it without being questioned by the public, they will.
