I'm not sure what to tell you. I'm a professional with nearly two decades of experience in this industry, and I don't read any white papers. I read web publications like Smashing Magazine or CSS Tricks, and more specifically authors like Paul Irish, Jake Archibald, Josh Comeau, and Roman Komarov. Developers who talk about the latest features and standards, and best practices to adopt.
The view that professionals in this industry exclusively participate in academic circles runs counter to my experience. Unless you're following the latest AI buzz, most people are not spending their time on arXiv.
The PSL is surely an imperfect solution, but it's solving a problem for the moment. Ideally a more permanent DNS-based solution would be implemented to replace it. Though some system akin to SSL certificates would be necessary to provide an element of third-party trust, as bad actors could otherwise abuse it to segment malicious activity on their own domains.
If you're opposed to Safe Browsing as a whole, both Chromium and Firefox allow you to disable that feature. However, making it an opt-in would essentially turn off an important security feature for billions of users. This would result in a far greater influx of phishing attacks and the spread of malware. I can understand being opposed to such a filter from an idealistic perspective, but practically speaking, it would do far more harm than good.
