What is the future of Google Play Intergrity APIs (and similar concepts)? Do you think we can find a way to bypass these, or is the future of the digital world just authoritarian and dystopian? (sh.itjust.works)

Depends on what your definition of winning is. If we reach a state where it is literally impossible to run your own software without heavy hardware modification, which would exclude 99.9% of users, that would be like big tech winning in my book. That's why right to repair is important, and we probably also need laws to prevent OEMs from disallowing the use of alternate OS.
