    I assume with chromium being open source that there will be an alternative compiled version without this nonsense?

      That’s how it works for now, but eventually the code itself will be removed from chromium, not just disabled. At that point they’d have to maintain a large patch set reimplementing it, which would be extremely time intensive to maintain and keep secure.
