PWA is a "progressive web app" - a normal web app that can use additional features when available. Everything beyond straight HTML (including CSS and Javascript) is considered "progressive". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_enhancement
There are many features put under the marketing banner of "PWA" that Safari supports. A large number of the ones which Safari _doesn't_ support are only supported by the Blink engine, and are not on a standards track. Many of these other browser engines have explicitly said they will not support due to the design being harmful for the web.
Google themselves have slowed down significantly on new "PWA" features since ChromeOS started supporting running native Android apps.
You skipped a step: First, enforce the rules and actually (and readily) impose the fines to indicate the laws are meaningful even for certain segments of society.
It's at least as private as third party cookies. And unlike third party cookies there is a path to improve privacy as technology improves.
Some of the required technologies (private model training, debuggable trusted execution environments) are still research topics, so some sacrifices have to be made until it can be deployed.
Sorry, I'm not a WSJ subscriber. It wouldn't surprise me if Google are being squeezed between two organizations with different goals though.
Ultimately the Privacy Sandbox has dozens of different proposals, and each is on a separate standards track. It's not a singular technology.
I will say that many of the proposals do directly improve user privacy, or offer more-private alternatives to existing APIs. But I'd also be surprised if there weren't objections as well. It's the web, and scrutiny is important.
"privacy sandbox" is a deceiving name,it is a harmful tracking tech,glad regulators(UK's privacy watchdog ICO) are waking up,but that also means status quo of 3rd party cookies remains until it's fixed https://www.wsj.com/tech/google-cookies-replacement-not-enou...
> Thus, Project Ghostbusters was born. It’s Meta’s in-house wiretapping tool to spy on data analytics from Snapchat starting in 2016, later used on YouTube and Amazon. This involved creating “kits” that can be installed on iOS and Android devices, to intercept traffic for certain apps, according to the filings. This was described as a “man-in-the-middle” approach to get data on Facebook’s rivals, but users of Onavo were the “men in the middle.”
