The title is inaccurate and editorialized

The changes in Chrome 94 only affect public websites accessing private IP addresses or localhost. The Private Network Access specification also classifies requests from private websites to localhost as problematic. Chrome will eventually deprecate these too. This presents a slightly different set of challenges however, as many private websites do not have domain names, complicating the use of deprecation trial tokens.
