Yeah. Or anything WebGL.

System-wide collateral damage is definitely a non-starter. If that
means that the userspace driver has to do what iris does and ensure
everything's recreated and resubmitted, that works too, just as long
as the response to 'my adblocker didn't detect a crypto miner ad'  is
something better than 'shoot the entire user session'.

Cheers,
Daniel
